How to convert dependent equation to independent for parallel computing (parfor)

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
I am trying to run my code using 'parfor' but getting error due to dependent term. How to resolve that.
The code similar to below. I am getting error for third loop expression
image(: , : , i) = image(: , : , i) + image(: , : , i -1);
parfor ix = 1:nx
% expression to calculate image_c and image_d
for i = 1:nt
image(:,:,i) = image_c(:,:,i) +image_d(:,:,i);
end
for i=2:nt
image(:,:,i) = image(:,:,i) +image(:,:,i-1);
end
end

You cannot do that in parallel.
What you can do is roughly
total = zeros(size(image));
parfor i = 1 : nt
total = total + image(:,:,i);
end
MATLAB recognizes total as being a "reduction variable" and will take care of doing the relevant additions and locking.

why bother to take a cumulative sum of snapshot_i but then only extract the last layer? Why not just sum(snapshot_i,3) ?
