Sequence generators obtained by linear recursions over the two-element field $\mathbb{F}_2$, i.e., $\mathbb{F}_2$-linear generators, are widely used as pseudorandom number generators. For example, the Mersenne Twister MT19937 is one of the…

The Mersenne Twister MT19937 pseudorandom number generator, introduced by the last two authors in 1998, is still widely used. It passes all existing statistical tests, except for the linear complexity test, which measures the ratio of the…

Many simulation applications require the generation of long sequences of pseudo-random numbers. Linear recurrences modulo 2 are commonly used as the fundamental building block for constructing pseudo-random number generators with extended…

CPUs and operating systems are moving from 32 to 64 bits, and hence it is important to have good pseudorandom number generators designed to fully exploit these word lengths. However, existing 64-bit very long period generators based on…

We combine the design of two \emph{random number generators}, \emph{Mersenne Twister} and \emph{Xorgens}, to obtain a new class of generators with heavy-weight characteristic polynomials (exceeded only by the {\sc well} generators) and high…

This paper proposes a type of pseudorandom number generator, Mersenne Twister for Graphic Processor (MTGP), for efficient generation on graphic processessing units (GPUs). MTGP supports large state sizes such as 11213 bits, and uses the…

When the Mersenne Twister made his first appearance in 1997 it was a powerful example of how linear maps on $\mathbf F_2$ could be used to generate pseudorandom numbers. In particular, the easiness with which generators with long periods…

The Mersenne Twister (MT) is a pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) widely used in High Performance Computing for parallel stochastic simulations. We aim to assess the quality of common parallelization techniques used to generate large…

In this work it is shown how 128 bit SSE2 multimedia extension registers, present in Pentium IV class 32 bit processors, may be used to generate random numbers at several times greater speed then when regular general purpose registers are…

The Mersenne-Twister is one of the most popular generators of uniform pseudo-random numbers. It is used in many numerical libraries and software. In this paper, we look at the Komolgorov entropy of the original Mersenne-Twister, as well as…

Single-precision floating point (FP32) data format, defined by the IEEE 754 standard, is widely employed in scientific computing, signal processing, and deep learning training, where precision is critical. However, FP32 multiplication is…

Floating-point computations are quickly finding their way in the design of safety- and mission-critical systems, despite the fact that designing floating-point algorithms is significantly more difficult than designing integer algorithms.…

Parallel stochastic simulations tend to exploit more and more computing power and they are now also developed for General Purpose Graphics Process Units (GP-GPUs). Conse-quently, they need reliable random sources to feed their applications.…

This paper proposes a set of techniques to develop correctly rounded math libraries for 32-bit float and posit types. It enhances our RLibm approach that frames the problem of generating correctly rounded libraries as a linear programming…

Augmenting the balanced residue number system moduli-set $\{m_1=2^n,m_2=2^n-1,m_3=2^n+1\}$, with the co-prime modulo $m_4=2^{2n}+1$, increases the dynamic range (DR) by around 70%. The Mersenne form of product $m_2 m_3 m_4=2^{4n}-1$, in the…

We introduce a new method for hardware non-uniform random number generation based on the transfer characteristics of graphene field-effect transistors (GFETs) which requires as few as two transistors and a resistor (or transimpedance…

Fixed-to-variable length (f2v) matchers are used to reversibly transform an input sequence of independent and uniformly distributed bits into an output sequence of bits that are (approximately) independent and distributed according to a…

(Pseudo)random sampling, a costly yet widely used method in (probabilistic) machine learning and Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithms, remains unfeasible on a truly large scale due to unmet computational requirements. We introduce an…

Many Random Number Generators (RNG) are available nowadays; they are divided in two categories, hardware RNG, that provide "true" random numbers, and algorithmic RNG, that generate pseudo random numbers (PRNG). Both types usually generate…

In recent years fused-multiply-add (FMA) units with lower-precision multiplications and higher-precision accumulation have proven useful in machine learning/artificial intelligence applications, most notably in training deep neural networks…
