Sampling outcomes in binary64 precision:

Local Percentage Accuracy vs ?

The average percentage accuracy by input value. Horizontal axis shows value of an input variable; the variable is choosen in the title. Vertical axis is accuracy; higher is better. Red represent the original program, while blue represents Herbie's suggestion. These can be toggled with buttons below the plot. The line is an average while dots represent individual samples.

Accuracy vs Speed?

Herbie found 7 alternatives:

AlternativeAccuracySpeedup
The accuracy (vertical axis) and speed (horizontal axis) of each alternatives. Up and to the right is better. The red square shows the initial program, and each blue circle shows an alternative.The line shows the best available speed-accuracy tradeoffs.

Derivation
  1. Split input into 2 regimes
  2. if b < 1.62e9

    1. Initial program 72.0%

      \[\left({\left(a \cdot a + b \cdot b\right)}^{2} + 4 \cdot \left(\left(a \cdot a\right) \cdot \left(1 + a\right) + \left(b \cdot b\right) \cdot \left(1 - 3 \cdot a\right)\right)\right) - 1 \]
    2. Simplified72.1%

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{{\left(\mathsf{hypot}\left(a, b\right)\right)}^{4} + \mathsf{fma}\left(4, \mathsf{fma}\left(b, b \cdot \mathsf{fma}\left(a, -3, 1\right), \mathsf{fma}\left(a, a, {a}^{3}\right)\right), -1\right)} \]
    3. Taylor expanded in a around inf 53.5%

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{{a}^{4}} \]

    if 1.62e9 < b

    1. Initial program 62.1%

      \[\left({\left(a \cdot a + b \cdot b\right)}^{2} + 4 \cdot \left(\left(a \cdot a\right) \cdot \left(1 + a\right) + \left(b \cdot b\right) \cdot \left(1 - 3 \cdot a\right)\right)\right) - 1 \]

    3. Taylor expanded in b around inf 95.7%

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{{b}^{4}} \]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.
  4. Final simplification64.4%

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;b \leq 1620000000:\\ \;\;\;\;{a}^{4}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;{b}^{4}\\ \end{array} \]
