Abstract

This work presents a detailed study of the parallelization of a Genetic Algorithm (GA) for pattern discovery using the Symbolic Aggregate approXimation (SAX). The main purpose was to understand the structure of the SAX/GA and if it could benefit from the highly parallel computation that the GPU provides. Each step of the genetic algorithm was analysed thoroughly and, based on a benchmark analysis applied to the sequential SAX/GA, three distinct solutions are proposed, each with its own benefits.
