- added a MapBase base xpr on top of which Map and the specialization
of Block are implemented
- MapBase forces both aligned loads (and aligned stores, see below) in expressions
such as "x.block(...) += other_expr"
* Significant vectorization improvement:
- added a AlignedBit flag meaning the first coeff/packet is aligned,
this allows to not generate extra code to deal with the first unaligned part
- removed all unaligned stores when no unrolling
- removed unaligned loads in Sum when the input as the DirectAccessBit flag
* Some code simplification in CacheFriendly product
* Some minor documentation improvements
- removes much code
- 2.5x faster (even though LU uses complete pivoting contrary to what
inverse used to do!)
- there _were_ numeric stability problems with the partial pivoting
approach of inverse(), with 200x200 matrices inversion failed almost
half of the times (overflow). Now these problems are solved thanks to
complete pivoting.
* remove some useless stuff in LU
*in test/CMakeLists : modify EI_ADD_TEST so that 2nd argument is
additional compiler flags. used to add -O2 to test_product_large so it
doesn't take forever.
not allow to easily get the rank), fix a bug (which could have been
triggered by matrices having coefficients of very different
magnitudes).
Part: add an assert to prevent hard to find bugs
Swap: update comments
Note: in fact, inverse() always uses partial pivoting because the algo
currently used doesn't make sense with complete pivoting. No num
stability issue so far even with size 200x200. If there is any problem
we can of course reimplement inverse on top of LU.
all per plot settings have been moved to a single file, go_mean now takes an
optional second argument "tiny" to generate plots for tiny matrices, and
output of comparison information wrt to previous benchs (if any).
pivoting for better numerical stability. For now the only application is
determinant.
* New determinant unit-test.
* Disable most of Swap.h for now as it makes LU fail (mysterious).
Anyway Swap needs a big overhaul as proposed on IRC.
* Remnants of old class Inverse removed.
* Some warnings fixed.
* faster matrix-matrix and matrix-vector products (especially for not aligned cases)
* faster tridiagonalization (make it using our matrix-vector impl.)
Others:
* fix Flags of Map
* split the test_product to two smaller ones
- added explicit enum to int conversion where needed
- if a function is not defined as declared and the return type is "tricky"
then the type must be typedefined somewhere. A "tricky return type" can be:
* a template class with a default parameter which depends on another template parameter
* a nested template class, or type of a nested template class
=> up to 6 times faster !
* Added DirectAccessBit to Part
* Added an exemple of a cwise operator
* Renamed perpendicular() => someOrthogonal() (geometry module)
* Fix a weired bug in ei_constant_functor: the default copy constructor did not copy
the imaginary part when the single member of the class is a complex...
- conflicts with operator * overloads
- discard the use of ei_pdiv for interger
(g++ handles operators on __m128* types, this is why it worked)
- weird behavior of icc in fixed size Block() constructor complaining
the initializer of m_blockRows and m_blockCols were missing while
we are in fixed size (maybe this hide deeper problem since this is a
recent one, but icc gives only little feedback)
Renamed "MatrixBase::extract() const" to "MatrixBase::part() const"
* Renamed static functions identity, zero, ones, random with an upper case
first letter: Identity, Zero, Ones and Random.
Removed EulerAngles, addes typdefs for Quaternion and AngleAxis,
and added automatic conversions from Quaternion/AngleAxis to Matrix3 such that:
Matrix3f m = AngleAxisf(0.2,Vector3f::UnitX) * AngleAxisf(0.2,Vector3f::UnitY);
just works.
* Improve the efficiency of matrix*vector in unaligned cases
* Trivial fixes in the destructors of MatrixStorage
* Removed the matrixNorm in test/product.cpp (twice faster and
that assumed the matrix product was ok while checking that !!)
- remove all invertibility checking, will be redundant with LU
- general case: adapt to matrix storage order for better perf
- size 4 case: handle corner cases without falling back to gen case.
- rationalize with selectors instead of compile time if
- add C-style computeInverse()
* update inverse test.
* in snippets, default cout precision to 3 decimal places
* add some cmake module from kdelibs to support btl with cmake 2.4
- removed the ugly X11 and PNG gnuplots terminals
- use enhanced postscript terminal
- use imagemagick to generate the png files (with compression)
- disable the fortran impl by default since it is as meaningless as a "C impl"
- update line settings
It basically performs 4 dot products at once reducing loads of the vector and improving
instructions scheduling. With 3 cache friendly algorithms, we now handle all product
configurations with outstanding perf for large matrices.
