Korali: Efficient and Scalable Software Framework for Bayesian Uncertainty Quantification and Stochastic Optimization

We present Korali, an open-source framework for large-scale Bayesian uncertainty quantification and stochastic optimization. The framework relies on non-intrusive sampling of complex multiphysics models and enables their exploitation for optimization and decision-making. In addition, its distributed sampling engine makes efficient use of massively-parallel architectures while introducing novel fault tolerance and load balancing mechanisms. We demonstrate these features by interfacing Korali with existing high-performance software such as Aphros, Lammps (CPU-based), and Mirheo (GPU-based) and show efficient scaling for up to 512 nodes of the CSCS Piz Daint supercomputer. Finally, we present benchmarks demonstrating that Korali outperforms related state-of-the-art software frameworks.
