sci@gentoo.org Gentoo Science Project python@gentoo.org Python This provides a set of sparse matrix types for Python, with modules which implement: - Iterative methods for solving linear systems of equations - A set of standard preconditioners - An interface to a direct solver for sparse linear systems of equations - The JDSYM eigensolver. All of these modules are implemented as C extension modules based on standard sparse and dense matrix libraries (UMFPACK/AMD, SuperLU, BLAS/LAPACK) for maximum performance and robustness. emcee
