KernelOPT is a multi‑agent system that optimizes GPU kernels generated by compilers like PyTorch Inductor by treating compiled models as structured artifacts. It preserves vendor library calls and focuses on Triton sub‑kernels, using five profiling‑guided LLM agents and a four‑gate verification cascade to ensure correctness and performance before re‑stitching the model. On 250 KernelBench problems, KernelOPT achieves geometric mean speedups of 1.40×, 1.15×, and 1.07× over torch.compile at three optimization levels.

The paper explores using large language models (LLMs) to replace traditional compiler backends, a process termed AI lowering. An LLM agent translates Triton kernels directly into NVIDIA PTX, achieving 0.83x–3.34x the performance of autotuned Triton on a variety of GPUs and ML kernels. The study also extends a PTX verifier to support modern GPU features, highlighting the potential for AI compilers to reduce engineering effort for new hardware.

DataKernelBench evaluates whether large language models (LLMs) can optimize database queries for GPU execution. The benchmark translates SQL into PyTorch TorchPlan programs and tests LLMs on optimizing core tensor snippets or full queries in CUDA or Triton, using execution-guided repair. On TPC‑H SF10 with an H100 GPU, the best full‑query CUDA configuration outperforms torch.compile by 2.11×, and extending TorchPlan with Dask‑cuDF enables a 2.54× speedup on TPC‑H SF100 across four H100 GPUs.

HoliBench is a modular benchmarking and deployment toolkit that jointly measures accuracy, latency, and energy for foundation models across a wide range of devices, from single-board computers to GPU servers. It provides a platform abstraction layer that calibrates cross-device measurements and supports multiple model modalities, inference engines, and quantization levels. Using HoliBench, the authors evaluated 20 models on 7 device types, revealing tradeoffs such as limited latency gains from quantization on low‑precision hardware and diminishing accuracy returns relative to energy consumption, while also showing that single-model profiles can predict multi-model pipeline performance within a few percent.
