Description

SuiteSparse is a suite of sparse matrix algorithms, including:

  • GraphBLAS: graph algorithms in the language of linear algebra

  • Mongoose: graph partitioning

  • ssget: MATLAB and Java interface to the SuiteSparse Matrix Collection

  • UMFPACK: multifrontal LU factorization. Appears as LU and x= in MATLAB.

  • CHOLMOD: supernodal Cholesky. Appears as CHOL and x= in MATLAB. Now with CUDA acceleration, in collaboration with NVIDIA.

  • SPQR: multifrontal QR. Appears as QR and x= in MATLAB, with CUDA acceleration.

  • KLU and BTF: sparse LU factorization, well-suited for circuit simulation.

  • Ordering methods (AMD, CAMD, COLAMD, and CCOLAMD). AMD and COLAMD appear in MATLAB.

  • CSparse and CXSparse: a concise sparse Cholesky factorization package for my SIAM book.

  • spqr_rank: a MATLAB package for reliable sparse rank detection, null set bases, pseudoinverse solutions, and basic solutions.

  • Factorize: an object-oriented solver for MATLAB (a reusable backslash).

  • SSMULT and SFMULT: sparse matrix multiplication. Appears as the built-in C=A*B operator in MATLAB.

  • ... and many other packages.
