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.

arXiv:2607. 14541v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing GPU kernel generation benchmarks draw problems from synthetic or curated sources that diverge from deployed workloads.
arXiv:2607. 24762v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine learning models are increasingly embedded in everyday software, and most of their runtime is spent in a small set of compute kernels such as matrix multiplication, convolution, and normalization.
arXiv:2608. 12629v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: GPU kernel agents and GPU programming languages have advanced separately, leaving expert kernels difficult to reproduce.
AsmEvo is an agentic assembly-level optimizer that targets compiled AMDGPU code objects, reconstructing a reassemblable representation and applying low-level edits guided by a long-horizon agent. It rebuilds ABI-preserving optimized objects and verifies functional equivalence through differential testing against the original binary. Experiments show significant speedups—up to 1.35× geometric mean on MI308X and 1.18× on MI300X—while maintaining correctness.
