| Abstract/Notes | In this paper, we propose a parallel convolution algorithm for estimating the partial derivatives of 2D and 3D images on distributed-memory MIMD architectures. Exploiting the separable characteristics of the Gaussian filter, the proposed algorithm consists of multiple phases such that each phase corresponds to a separated filter. Furthermore, it exploits both the task and data parallelism, and reduces communication through data redistribution. We have implemented the proposed algorithm on the Intel Paragon and obtained a substantial speedup using more than 100 processors. The performance of the algorithm is also evaluated analytically. The analytical results confirming with the experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm scales very well with the problem size and number of processors. We have also applied our algorithm to the design and implementation of an efficient parallel scheme for the 3D surface tracking process. Although our focus is on 3D image data, the algorithm is also applicable to 2D image data, and can be useful for a myriad of important applications including medical imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasonic imagery, scientific visualization, and image sequence analysis. |
