Recent architectures, such as NVIDIA GPUs, feature high-performance units designed for low-precision matrix multiplications in machine learning models, and next-generation architectures are expected to follow the same design principle. The key to achieving superior performance is to fully leverage such architectures. The Ozaki scheme, a highly accurate matrix multiplication algorithm using error-free transformations, enables higher-precision matrix multiplication to be performed through multiple lower-precision matrix multiplications and higher-precision matrix additions. Ootomo et al. implemented the Ozaki scheme on high-performance matrix multiplication units with the aim of achieving both sufficient accuracy and high performance. This paper proposes alternative approaches to improving performance by reducing the numbers of lower-precision matrix multiplications and higher-precision matrix additions. Numerical experiments demonstrate the accuracy of the results and conduct performance benchmarks of the proposed approaches. These approaches are expected to yield more efficient results in next-generation architectures.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2409.13313v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2409.13313v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"performance-enhancement-of-the-ozaki-scheme","repo_url":"https://github.com/riken-rccs/accelerator_for_ozimmu","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=2409.13313","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
