许多资料表明,著名的快速逆平方根算法可以推广到任意幂逆根的计算.不幸的是,我还没有找到这样的C++实现,而且我自己也不擅长推广这种方法。你能帮我做这件事或者提供一个现成的解决方案吗?我认为这对许多人都是有用的,特别是有了很好的解释。
这是最初的算法,我不太明白我需要更改什么才能得到例如1 /cbrt(x)
float Q_rsqrt( float number )
{
long i;
float x2, y;
const float threehalfs = 1.5F;
x2 = number * 0.5F;
y = number;
i = * ( long * ) &y; // evil floating point bit level hacking
i = 0x5f3759df - ( i >> 1 ); // what the...?
y = * ( float * ) &i;
y = y * ( threehalfs - ( x2 * y * y ) ); // 1st iteration
// y = y * ( threehalfs - ( x2 * y * y ) ); // 2nd iteration, this can be removed
return y;

该算法由两个步骤组成:一个粗略的解估计和几个牛顿法步骤的改进。
粗略估计
其基本思想是利用浮点数对数log2(x)与其整数表示Ix之间的关系。


(图片来源于根部)
现在,使用著名的对数身份作为根:

。
结合前面得到的恒等式,我们得到:


替换数值L * (B - s) = 0x3F7A3BEA,所以
Iy = 0x3F7A3BEA / c * (c + 1) - Ix / c;。
对于一个简单的浮点数表示为整数和后退,使用union类型是很方便的:
union
{
float f; // float representation
uint32_t i; // integer representation
} t;
t.f = x;
t.i = 0x3F7A3BEA / n * (n + 1) - t.i / n; // Work with integer representation
float y = t.f; // back to float representation请注意,对于n=2,表达式被简化为与原始i = 0x5f3759df - ( i >> 1 );相同的t.i = 0x5f3759df - t.i / 2;
牛顿解改进
变换相等

变成一个应该解决的方程:

现在构造牛顿步骤:


从编程上看,它看起来是:y = y * (1 + n - x * pow(y,n)) / n;。作为初始y,我们使用在粗糙估计步骤中得到的值。
注对于平方根(n = 2)的特殊情况,我们得到了与原公式y = y * (threehalfs - (x2 * y * y))相同的y = y * (3 - x*y*y) / 2;;
最后的代码作为模板函数。参数N确定根功率。
template<unsigned N>
float power(float x) {
if (N % 2 == 0) return power<N / 2>(x * x);
else if (N % 3 == 0) return power<N / 3>(x * x * x);
return power<N - 1>(x) * x;
};
template<>
float power<0>(float x){ return 1; }
// fast_inv_nth_root<2>(x) - inverse square root 1/sqrt(x)
// fast_inv_nth_root<3>(x) - inverse cube root 1/cbrt(x)
template <unsigned n>
float fast_inv_nth_root(float x)
{
union { float f; uint32_t i; } t = { x };
// Approximate solution
t.i = 0x3F7A3BEA / n * (n + 1) - t.i / n;
float y = t.f;
// Newton's steps. Copy for more accuracy.
y = y * (n + 1 - x * power<n>(y)) / n;
y = y * (n + 1 - x * power<n>(y)) / n;
return y;
}测试
测试代码:
int main()
{
std::cout << "|x ""|fast2 "" actual2 "
"|fast3 "" actual3 "
"|fast4 "" actual4 "
"|fast5 "" actual5 ""|" << std::endl;
for (float i = 0.00001; i < 10000; i *= 10)
std::cout << std::setprecision(5) << std::fixed
<< std::scientific << '|'
<< i << '|'
<< fast_inv_nth_root<2>(i) << " " << 1 / sqrt(i) << "|"
<< fast_inv_nth_root<3>(i) << " " << 1 / cbrt(i) << "|"
<< fast_inv_nth_root<4>(i) << " " << pow(i, -0.25) << "|"
<< fast_inv_nth_root<5>(i) << " " << pow(i, -0.2) << "|"
<< std::endl;
}结果:
|x |fast2 actual2 |fast3 actual3 |fast4 actual4 |fast5 actual5 |
