Solvers

Solvers#

Code Structure#

template<class OperatorType, class VectorType, typename ValueType>
class Solver : public rocalution::RocalutionObj

Base class for all solvers and preconditioners.

Most of the solvers can be performed on linear operators LocalMatrix, LocalStencil and GlobalMatrix - i.e. the solvers can be performed locally (on a shared memory system) or in a distributed manner (on a cluster) via MPI. The only exception is the AMG (Algebraic Multigrid) solver which has two versions (one for LocalMatrix and one for GlobalMatrix class). The only pure local solvers (which do not support global/MPI operations) are the mixed-precision defect-correction solver and all direct solvers.

All solvers need three template parameters - Operators, Vectors and Scalar type.

The Solver class is purely virtual and provides an interface for

  • SetOperator() to set the operator \(A\), i.e. the user can pass the matrix here.

  • Build() to build the solver (including preconditioners, sub-solvers, etc.). The user need to specify the operator first before calling Build().

  • Solve() to solve the system \(Ax = b\). The user need to pass a right-hand-side \(b\) and a vector \(x\), where the solution will be obtained.

  • Print() to show solver information.

  • ReBuildNumeric() to only re-build the solver numerically (if possible).

  • MoveToHost() and MoveToAccelerator() to offload the solver (including preconditioners and sub-solvers) to the host/accelerator.

Iterative Linear Solvers#

template<class OperatorType, class VectorType, typename ValueType>
class IterativeLinearSolver : public rocalution::Solver<OperatorType, VectorType, ValueType>

Base class for all linear iterative solvers.

The iterative solvers are controlled by an iteration control object, which monitors the convergence properties of the solver, i.e. maximum number of iteration, relative tolerance, absolute tolerance and divergence tolerance. The iteration control can also record the residual history and store it in an ASCII file.

All iterative solvers are controlled based on

  • Absolute stopping criteria, when \(|r_{k}|_{L_{p}} < \epsilon_{abs}\)

  • Relative stopping criteria, when \(|r_{k}|_{L_{p}} / |r_{1}|_{L_{p}} \leq \epsilon_{rel}\)

  • Divergence stopping criteria, when \(|r_{k}|_{L_{p}} / |r_{1}|_{L_{p}} \geq \epsilon_{div}\)

  • Maximum number of iteration \(N\), when \(k = N\)

where \(k\) is the current iteration, \(r_{k}\) the residual for the current iteration \(k\) (i.e. \(r_{k} = b - Ax_{k}\)) and \(r_{1}\) the starting residual (i.e. \(r_{1} = b - Ax_{init}\)). In addition, the minimum number of iterations \(M\) can be specified. In this case, the solver will not stop to iterate, before \(k \geq M\).

The \(L_{p}\) norm is used for the computation, where \(p\) could be 1, 2 and \(\infty\). The norm computation can be set with SetResidualNorm() with 1 for \(L_{1}\), 2 for \(L_{2}\) and 3 for \(L_{\infty}\). For the computation with \(L_{\infty}\), the index of the maximum value can be obtained with GetAmaxResidualIndex(). If this function is called and \(L_{\infty}\) was not selected, this function will return -1.

The reached criteria can be obtained with GetSolverStatus(), returning

  • 0, if no criteria has been reached yet

  • 1, if absolute tolerance has been reached

  • 2, if relative tolerance has been reached

  • 3, if divergence tolerance has been reached

  • 4, if maximum number of iteration has been reached

Return absolute maximum index of residual vector when using \(L_\infty\) norm.

virtual int rocalution::IterativeLinearSolver::GetSolverStatus(void)#

Return the current status.

Building and Solving Phase#

Each iterative solver consists of a building step and a solving step. During the building step all necessary auxiliary data is allocated and the preconditioner is constructed. After that, the user can call the solving procedure, the solving step can be called several times.

When the initial matrix associated with the solver is on the accelerator, the solver will try to build everything on the accelerator. However, some preconditioners and solvers (such as FSAI and AMG) need to be constructed on the host before they can be transferred to the accelerator. If the initial matrix is on the host and we want to run the solver on the accelerator then we need to move the solver to the accelerator as well as the matrix, the right-hand-side and the solution vector.

Note

If you have a preconditioner associate with the solver, it will be moved automatically to the accelerator when you move the solver.

// CG solver
CG<LocalMatrix<ValueType>, LocalVector<ValueType>, ValueType> ls;
// Multi-Colored ILU preconditioner
MultiColoredILU<LocalMatrix<ValueType>, LocalVector<ValueType>, ValueType> p;

// Move matrix and vectors to the accelerator
mat.MoveToAccelerator();
rhs.MoveToAccelerator();
x.MoveToAccelerator();

// Set mat to be the operator
ls.SetOperator(mat);
// Set p as the preconditioner of ls
ls.SetPreconditioner(p);

// Build the solver and preconditioner on the accelerator
ls.Build();

// Compute the solution on the accelerator
ls.Solve(rhs, &x);

// CG solver
CG<LocalMatrix<ValueType>, LocalVector<ValueType>, ValueType> ls;
// Multi-Colored ILU preconditioner
MultiColoredILU<LocalMatrix<ValueType>, LocalVector<ValueType>, ValueType> p;

// Set mat to be the operator
ls.SetOperator(mat);
// Set p as the preconditioner of ls
ls.SetPreconditioner(p);

// Build the solver and preconditioner on the host
ls.Build();

// Move matrix and vectors to the accelerator
mat.MoveToAccelerator();
rhs.MoveToAccelerator();
x.MoveToAccelerator();

// Move linear solver to the accelerator
ls.MoveToAccelerator();

// Compute the solution on the accelerator
ls.Solve(rhs, &x);

Clear Function and Destructor#

The rocalution::Solver::Clear() function clears all the data which is in the solver, including the associated preconditioner. Thus, the solver is not anymore associated with this preconditioner.

Note

The preconditioner is not deleted (via destructor), only a rocalution::Preconditioner::Clear() is called.

Note

When the destructor of the solver class is called, it automatically calls the Clear() function. Be careful, when declaring your solver and preconditioner in different places - we highly recommend to manually call the Clear() function of the solver and not to rely on the destructor of the solver.

Numerical Update#

Some preconditioners require two phases in the their construction: an algebraic (e.g. compute a pattern or structure) and a numerical (compute the actual values) phase. In cases, where the structure of the input matrix is a constant (e.g. Newton-like methods) it is not necessary to fully re-construct the preconditioner. In this case, the user can apply a numerical update to the current preconditioner and pass the new operator with rocalution::Solver::ReBuildNumeric(). If the preconditioner/solver does not support the numerical update, then a full rocalution::Solver::Clear() and rocalution::Solver::Build() will be performed.

Fixed-Point Iteration#

template<class OperatorType, class VectorType, typename ValueType>
class FixedPoint : public rocalution::IterativeLinearSolver<OperatorType, VectorType, ValueType>

Fixed-Point Iteration Scheme.

The Fixed-Point iteration scheme is based on additive splitting of the matrix \(A = M + N\). The scheme reads

\[ x_{k+1} = M^{-1} (b - N x_{k}). \]
It can also be reformulated as a weighted defect correction scheme
\[ x_{k+1} = x_{k} - \omega M^{-1} (Ax_{k} - b). \]
The inversion of \(M\) can be performed by preconditioners (Jacobi, Gauss-Seidel, ILU, etc.) or by any type of solvers.

Template Parameters:

Krylov Subspace Solvers#

CG#

template<class OperatorType, class VectorType, typename ValueType>
class CG : public rocalution::IterativeLinearSolver<OperatorType, VectorType, ValueType>

Conjugate Gradient Method.

The Conjugate Gradient method is the best known iterative method for solving sparse symmetric positive definite (SPD) linear systems \(Ax=b\). It is based on orthogonal projection onto the Krylov subspace \(\mathcal{K}_{m}(r_{0}, A)\), where \(r_{0}\) is the initial residual. The method can be preconditioned, where the approximation should also be SPD. SAAD

Template Parameters:

CR#

template<class OperatorType, class VectorType, typename ValueType>
class CR : public rocalution::IterativeLinearSolver<OperatorType, VectorType, ValueType>

Conjugate Residual Method.

The Conjugate Residual method is an iterative method for solving sparse symmetric semi-positive definite linear systems \(Ax=b\). It is a Krylov subspace method and differs from the much more popular Conjugate Gradient method that the system matrix is not required to be positive definite. The method can be preconditioned where the approximation should also be SPD or semi-positive definite. SAAD

Template Parameters:

GMRES#

template<class OperatorType, class VectorType, typename ValueType>
class GMRES : public rocalution::IterativeLinearSolver<OperatorType, VectorType, ValueType>

Generalized Minimum Residual Method.

The Generalized Minimum Residual method (GMRES) is a projection method for solving sparse (non) symmetric linear systems \(Ax=b\), based on restarting technique. The solution is approximated in a Krylov subspace \(\mathcal{K}=\mathcal{K}_{m}\) and \(\mathcal{L}=A\mathcal{K}_{m}\) with minimal residual, where \(\mathcal{K}_{m}\) is the \(m\)-th Krylov subspace with \(v_{1} = r_{0}/||r_{0}||_{2}\). SAAD

The Krylov subspace basis size can be set using SetBasisSize(). The default size is 30.

Template Parameters:
virtual void rocalution::GMRES::SetBasisSize(int size_basis)#

The Flexible Generalized Minimum Residual method (FGMRES) is a projection method for solving sparse (non) symmetric linear systems \(Ax=b\). It is similar to the GMRES method with the only difference, the FGMRES is based on a window shifting of the Krylov subspace and thus allows the preconditioner \(M^{-1}\) to be not a constant operator. This can be especially helpful if the operation \(M^{-1}x\) is the result of another iterative process and not a constant operator. SAAD

The Krylov subspace basis size can be set using SetBasisSize(). The default size is 30.

It is similar to the Conjugate Gradient method with the only difference, that it allows the preconditioner \(M^{-1}\) to be not a constant operator. This can be especially helpful if the operation \(M^{-1}x\) is the result of another iterative process and not a constant operator. fcg

Mixed-Precision Defect Correction Scheme.

The Mixed-Precision solver is based on a defect-correction scheme. The current implementation of the library is using host based correction in double precision and accelerator computation in single precision. The solver is implemeting the scheme

\[ x_{k+1} = x_{k} + A^{-1} r_{k}, \]
where the computation of the residual \(r_{k} = b - Ax_{k}\) and the update \(x_{k+1} = x_{k} + d_{k}\) are performed on the host in double precision. The computation of the residual system \(Ad_{k} = r_{k}\) is performed on the accelerator in single precision. In addition to the setup functions of the iterative solver, the user need to specify the inner ( \(Ad_{k} = r_{k}\)) solver.
