Member Function Documentation

◆ normal_equation_factor()

bool NormalEquationSparseLinearAlgebraTraits_d::normal_equation_factor ( const Matrix A)

Factorize the sparse matrix At * A.

This factorization is used in normal_equation_solver() to solve the system for different right-hand side vectors.

Returns
true if the factorization is successful and false otherwise.

◆ normal_equation_solver()

bool NormalEquationSparseLinearAlgebraTraits_d::normal_equation_solver ( const Vector B,
Vector X 
)

Solve the sparse linear system At * A * X = At * B, with A being the matrix provided in normal_equation_factor(), and At its transpose matrix.

Returns
true if the solver is successful and false otherwise.
