Functorial String Diagrams for Reverse-Mode Automatic Differentiation

Authors: Mario Alvarez-Picallo, Dan Ghica, David Sprunger, and Fabio Zanasi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 252, 31st EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2023)


Abstract
We formulate a reverse-mode automatic differentiation (RAD) algorithm for (applied) simply typed lambda calculus in the style of Pearlmutter and Siskind [Barak A. Pearlmutter and Jeffrey Mark Siskind, 2008], using the graphical formalism of string diagrams. Thanks to string diagram rewriting, we are able to formally prove for the first time the soundness of such an algorithm. Our approach requires developing a calculus of string diagrams with hierarchical features in the spirit of functorial boxes, in order to model closed monoidal (and cartesian closed) structure. To give an efficient yet principled implementation of the RAD algorithm, we use foliations of our hierarchical string diagrams.

Concurrent Robin Hood Hashing

Authors: Robert Kelly, Barak A. Pearlmutter, and Phil Maguire

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 125, 22nd International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2018)


Abstract
In this paper we examine the issues involved in adding concurrency to the Robin Hood hash table algorithm. We present a non-blocking obstruction-free K-CAS Robin Hood algorithm which requires only a single word compare-and-swap primitive, thus making it highly portable. The implementation maintains the attractive properties of the original Robin Hood structure, such as a low expected probe length, capability to operate effectively under a high load factor and good cache locality, all of which are essential for high performance on modern computer architectures. We compare our data-structures to various other lock-free and concurrent algorithms, as well as a simple hardware transactional variant, and show that our implementation performs better across a number of contexts.
