In several papers of 2013 - 2016, Guglielmi and Protasov made a breakthrough in the problem of the joint spectral radius computation, developing the invariant polytope algorithm which for most matrix families finds the exact value of the joint spectral radius. This algorithm found many applications in problems of functional analysis, approximation theory, combinatorics, etc.. In this paper we propose a modification of the invariant polytope algorithm making it roughly 3 times faster and suitable for higher dimensions. The modified version works for most matrix families of dimensions up to 25, for non-negative matrices the dimension is up to three thousand. Besides we introduce a new, fast algorithm for computing good lower bounds for the joint spectral radius. The corresponding examples and statistics of numerical results are provided. Several applications of our algorithms are presented. In particular, we find the exact values of the regularity exponents of Daubechies wavelets of high orders and the capacities of codes that avoid certain difference patterns.
