# SimdExtensions Class
|
|
|
|
`SimdExtensions` provides high-performance, SIMD-accelerated extension methods for `ReadOnlySpan<double>`. It leverages .NET's `Vector<T>` to achieve 4-8x speedups on supported hardware (AVX2, AVX-512) while automatically falling back to scalar implementations on older hardware.
|
|
|
|
## Key Features
|
|
|
|
* **Hardware Acceleration**: Uses CPU vector registers to process multiple elements in parallel.
|
|
* **Automatic Fallback**: Gracefully handles non-SIMD hardware or small arrays.
|
|
* **Zero-Allocation**: Operates directly on spans without creating new arrays.
|
|
* **Aggressive Inlining**: Methods are marked for inlining to minimize call overhead.
|
|
|
|
## Available Methods
|
|
|
|
| Method | Description |
|
|
| ------ | ------ |
|
|
| `ContainsNonFinite()` | Checks if span contains any non-finite values (NaN or Infinity). |
|
|
| `SumSIMD()` | Calculates the sum of elements. |
|
|
| `MinSIMD()` | Finds the minimum value. |
|
|
| `MaxSIMD()` | Finds the maximum value. |
|
|
| `MinMaxSIMD()` | Finds both min and max in a single pass (more efficient than separate calls). |
|
|
| `AverageSIMD()` | Calculates the arithmetic mean. |
|
|
| `VarianceSIMD()` | Calculates the sample variance. |
|
|
| `StdDevSIMD()` | Calculates the sample standard deviation. |
|
|
| `DotProduct()` | Calculates the dot product of two spans. |
|
|
|
|
## Performance
|
|
|
|
On modern CPUs (e.g., Intel Core i7/i9, AMD Ryzen), these methods typically outperform standard LINQ or scalar loops by a factor of 4 to 8 for large arrays.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```csharp
|
|
using QuanTAlib;
|
|
|
|
double[] data = { 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, ... };
|
|
ReadOnlySpan<double> span = data;
|
|
|
|
// Calculate sum
|
|
double sum = span.SumSIMD();
|
|
|
|
// Calculate min and max in one pass
|
|
var (min, max) = span.MinMaxSIMD();
|
|
|
|
// Calculate standard deviation
|
|
double stdDev = span.StdDevSIMD();
|
|
|
|
// Check for valid data
|
|
bool hasInvalid = span.ContainsNonFinite();
|
|
|
|
// Calculate dot product
|
|
double dot = span.DotProduct(otherSpan);
|
|
```
