Armadillo is a high quality C++ linear algebra library useful
|
||
|
|
for development of algorithms in machine learning, pattern recognition,
|
||
|
|
signal processing, bioinformatics, statistics, etc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Armadillo makes extensive use of template meta-programming, recursive templates
|
||
|
|
and template based function overloading. As such, C++ compilers which do not
|
||
|
|
fully implement the C++ standard may not work correctly.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The functionality of Armadillo is partly dependent on other libraries:
|
||
|
|
LAPACK, BLAS and ARPACK. The LAPACK and BLAS libraries are used for
|
||
|
|
dense matrices, while the ARPACK library is used for sparse matrices.
|
||
|
|
Armadillo can work without these libraries, but its functionality
|
||
|
|
will be reduced. In particular, basic functionality will be available
|
||
|
|
(eg. matrix addition and multiplication), but things like eigen
|
||
|
|
decomposition or matrix inversion will not be. Matrix multiplication
|
||
|
|
(mainly for big matrices) may not be as fast.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As Armadillo is a template library, we recommended that optimisation
|
||
|
|
is enabled during compilation of programs that use Armadillo.
|
||
|
|
For example, for GCC and Clang compilers use -O2 or -O3
