Re: [math] 2.1 Release plan

2010-03-14 Thread Ted Dunning
Computation of the largest few singular values (often associated with a partial set of singular vectors, either left, right or both) is very much the business of the SVD algorithm because computing just a few singular values is much more efficient than computing the entire set and often suffices ju

For sparse matrices, almost the only requirement is a good dense SVD. If you have an SVD that is very fast for tall skinny matrices, that would be excellent. If not, that can be worked around. The basic idea is that right multiplication by a tall skinny random array (which is never stored explic

This broke the profile - its only for components that have an m2 build and can only be used with trunks-sandbox: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/commons/trunks-sandbox/ Also this profile is so that it makes running builds for the *active* components easier - rather than having to individually kick

Luc, I think there are two parts in the isse. The first one is related to sparse matrix and we don't have an answer yet. The second part is related to compute a partial set of singular values. This is used for example in image compression or to find a matrix with reduce rank that is the closest

I do fear that this discussion may be over-thinking. Most users will, I believe, be working with String and want a String back. Many of these calls may be in time-critical code, so the conversion from a CharSequence (even though trivial) may be a small overhead. We also have StrBuilder for tho
