A Verified Certificate Checker for Finite-Precision Error Bounds in Coq and HOL4

open access: yes, 2018
Being able to soundly estimate roundoff errors of finite-precision computations is important for many applications in embedded systems and scientific computing.

Good rotations

open access: yes, 1998
Numerical integrations in celestial mechanics often involve the repeated computation of a rotation with a constant angle. A direct evaluation of these rotations yields a linear drift of the distance to the origin.

On Sound Relative Error Bounds for Floating-Point Arithmetic

open access: yes, 2017
State-of-the-art static analysis tools for verifying finite-precision code compute worst-case absolute error bounds on numerical errors. These are, however, often not a good estimate of accuracy as they do not take into account the magnitude of the ...

Testing the Accuracy and Stability of Spectral Methods in Numerical Relativity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The accuracy and stability of the Caltech-Cornell pseudospectral code is evaluated using the KST representation of the Einstein evolution equations. The basic "Mexico City Tests" widely adopted by the numerical relativity community are adapted here for ...

Register‐Efficient Linear‐Time Evaluation in the Bernstein Basis

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigate the evaluation of points and derivatives of Bézier curves and surfaces on modern architectures, focusing on performance and guided by numerical error bounds. While the de Casteljau algorithm remains the reference for numerical robustness, its linear working‐set size imposes substantial register pressure on GPUs.

Quantization in Control Systems and Forward Error Analysis of Iterative Numerical Algorithms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The use of control theory to study iterative algorithms, which can be considered as dynamical systems, opens many opportunities to find new tools for analysis of algorithms.

A stochastic roundoff error analysis for the convolution [PDF]

open access: yesMathematics of Computation, 1992
We study the accuracy of an algorithm which computes the convolution via Radix-2 fast Fourier transforms. Upper bounds are derived for the expected value and the variance of the accompanying linear forms in terms of the expected value and variance of the relative roundoff errors for the elementary operations of addition and multiplication.

The Role of Dice in the Emergence of the Probability Calculus

open access: yesInternational Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary The early development of the probability calculus was clearly influenced by the roll of dice. However, while dice have been cast since time immemorial, documented calculations on the frequency of various dice throws date back only to the mid‐13th century.

Roundoff errors in the problem of computing Cauchy principal value integrals

open access: yes, 2015
We investigate the possibility of fast, accurate and reliable computation of the Cauchy principal value integrals $\mathrm{P}\!\int_{a}^{b} f(x)(x-\tau)^{-1} dx$ $(a < \tau < b)$ using standard adaptive quadratures. In order to properly control the error

Self-similar Singularity of a 1D Model for the 3D Axisymmetric Euler Equations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We investigate the self-similar singularity of a 1D model for the 3D axisymmetric Euler equations, which is motivated by a particular singularity formation scenario observed in numerical computation.
