Re: [eigen] Sparse Matrices in Eigen

[ Thread Index | Date Index | More lists.tuxfamily.org/eigen Archives ]


Daniel,
Besides CG, my interest is in large scale LSQR and/or CGNR and preconditioners for these methods.
For LSQR, CGNR, I am interested in Block Jacobi, RIF and MIQR preconditioners. 
I am probably going to implement them outside the tree first and see how they perform before submitting them.

The first thing I planned on implementing in this regard is a
conjugate gradient solver.  After that I'll probably implement some
preconditioners like SOR.  Did you have anything else in mind?
Right now I'm pretty busy so I'll only be able to start in a few weeks.
