- Updated unit tests to check above constructor.
- In the compute() method of decompositions: Made temporary matrices/vectors class members to avoid heap allocations during compute() (when dynamic matrices are used, of course).
These changes can speed up decomposition computation time when a solver instance is used to solve multiple same-sized problems. An added benefit is that the compute() method can now be invoked in contexts were heap allocations are forbidden, such as in real-time control loops.
CAVEAT: Not all of the decompositions in the Eigenvalues module have a heap-allocation-free compute() method. A future patch may address this issue, but some required API changes need to be incorporated first.
Finally the createRandomMatrixOfRank() function is renamed to createRandomPIMatrixOfRank, where PI stands for 'partial isometry', that is, a matrix whose singular values are 0 or 1.
(fixes lu test failures when testing solve())
* LU test: set appropriate threshold and limit the number of times that a specially tricky test
is run. (fixes lu test failures when testing rank()).
* Tests: rename createRandomMatrixOfRank to createRandomProjectionOfRank
* renaming, e.g. LU ---> FullPivLU
* split tests framework: more robust, e.g. dont generate empty tests if a number is skipped
* make all remaining tests use that splitting, as needed.
* Fix 4x4 inversion (see stable branch)
* Transform::inverse() and geo_transform test : adapt to new inverse() API, it was also trying to instantiate inverse() for 3x4 matrices.
* CMakeLists: more robust regexp to parse the version number
* misc fixes in unit tests
* continue the decomposition until a pivot is exactly zero;
don't try to compute the rank in the decomposition itself.
* Instead, methods such as rank() use a new internal parameter
called 'threshold' to determine which pivots are to be
considered nonzero.
* The threshold is by default determined by defaultThreshold()
but the user can override that by calling useThreshold(value).
* In solve/kernel/image, don't assume that the diagonal of U
is sorted in decreasing order, because that's only approximately
true. Additional work was needed to extract the right pivots.
* switched lu/qr tests to be using createRandomMatrixOfRank
* removed unused methods doSomeRankPreservingOperations
* removed NOTE about doSomeRankPreservingOperations
few bits left of the comma and for floating-point types will never return zero.
This replaces the custom functions in test/main.h, so one does not anymore need
to think about that when writing tests.
* bugfix in Dot unroller
* added special random generator for the unit tests and reduced the tolerance threshold by an order of magnitude
this fixes issues with sum.cpp but other tests still failed sometimes, this have to be carefully checked...
