superoptimization
A form of peephole optimization that typically uses an exhaustive brute-force search across all possible sequences of machine instructions.
Noun
- A form of peephole optimization that typically uses an exhaustive brute-force search across all possible sequences of machine instructions.
- As such, we implemented a state-of-the-art stochastic superoptimization approach, adapted it to the sort setting and used it as the learning algorithm in AlphaDev. - 2023 June 5, Daniel J. Mankowitz, Andrea Michi, Anton...
Origin
