Iterative linear solvers (MATH-581) again

2011-07-05 Thread Sébastien Brisard
Good morning, my proposal for the implementation of linear iterative solvers (JIRA MATH-581) has raised some comments from Gilles and Luc, but I think no consensus has been reached on one issue raised by Gilles. Before submitting a new version of the corresponding classes, I'd like to make a new pr

It seems a viable option to me, as long as the Javadoc is explicit enough. Sebastien

If it helps, there is a new LSMR implementation in Mahout. Steal it at will. We are moving to having at LinearOperator interface specifically for conjugate gradient methods like LSMR and power methods like Lanczos or stochastic projection decompositions. On Tue, Jul 5, 2011 at 7:08 PM, Greg Ster

Is the consensus, then, that we leave the interface alone and handle all possible cases inside the body of the method?

(MATH-607) Current Multiple Regression Object

2011-07-05 Thread Greg Sterijevski
Hello All, I have an open issue with respect to improving the linear regression techniques in Commons. The current regression technique has some limitations. Before introducing new implementations, I thought it better to suggest two interfaces. One interface would define an api each regression imp

JAMA definitely is good algorithm wise. API wise, it is very tied to a single representation which isn't acceptable. If you are finding JAMA more stable, then I would be +1 (in my own non-binding way) for copying the algorithms, but -1 for adding a dependency. On Tue, Jul 5, 2011 at 1:38 PM, Ch

[math] Incorporating JAMA code to solve problems?

2011-07-05 Thread Chris Nix
All, I've been working on another implementation of SVD as in issue MATH-355, I'm mostly there. However, I'm consistently impressed with the JAMA code. I email to ask a question that is perhaps quite bold for one such as me, so new to Commons Math.
