SimPoint++: Less Simulation Points
We propose SimPoint++, which replaces the BIC method by combining WCSS and Silhouette to find the optimal cluster. The new Python framework of SimPoint++ provides a dimension reduction pipeline for effective clustering and supports multi-thread application analysis. We evaluate SimPoint++ with Spec CPU 2017 benchmarks. SimPoint++ achieves comparable or higher accuracy with significantly fewer simulation points, resulting in a 5x speed-up in simulation time compared to state-of-the-art solutions.
