Bits Missing: Finding Exotic Pulsars Using bfloat16 on NVIDIA GPUs

Bits Missing: Finding Exotic Pulsars Using bfloat16 on NVIDIA GPUs

The Fourier domain acceleration search (FDAS) is an effective technique for detecting faint binary pulsars in large radio astronomy data sets. This paper quantifies the sensitivity impact of reducing numerical precision in the graphics processing unit (GPU)-accelerated FDAS pipeline of the AstroAcce...
