Exploration/exploitation of a hybrid‐enhanced MPSO‐GA algorithm on a fused CPU‐GPU architecture
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Summary Recent work in metaheuristic algorithms has shown that solution quality may be improved by composing algorithms with orthogonal characteristics. At the same time, fused CPU‐GPU systems have emerged as a unique platform on which to study these algorithms. Using metaheuristic algorithms requires striking a balance between local and global exploration. There are no governing rules, however, to balance these. In this paper, we study two population‐based metaheuristic algorithms: multi‐swarm particle swarm optimization (MPSO) and genetic algorithms (GAs). We investigate parallel MPSO variants with genetic operators to increase quality: crossover, mutation, swapping, and all three. We develop a hybrid parallel algorithm that combines a slower convergent algorithm (GA) with a faster one (MPSO). The hybrid achieves significant initial improvement in solution quality but no significant difference in the final average fitness. Executing the GA on the GPU requires approximately an order of magnitude less time (0.07–0.18 s) than on the CPU. Our platform is the AMD A8‐3530MX accelerated processing unit that packs four ×86 CPU cores and 80 very long instruction word GPU processing elements. We make effective use of the hierarchical memory structure on the accelerated processing unit, four‐way very long instruction word vectorization, and zero‐copy buffers.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
