freealg 0.12.2

Free probability for large matrices

Paper | Slides | Docs | Live Demo

freealg is a Python package that employs free probability to evaluate the spectral densities of large matrix forms. The fundamental algorithm employed by freealg is free decompression, which extrapolates from the empirical spectral densities of small submatrices to infer the eigenspectrum of extremely large matrices.

Install

Install with pip:

pip install freealg

Alternatively, clone the source code and install with

cd source_dir
pip install .

Quick Usage

The following code estimates the eigenvalues of a very large Wishart matrix using a much smaller Wishart matrix.

>>> import freealg as fa
>>> mp = fa.distributions.MarchenkoPastur(1/50) # Wishart matrices with aspect ratio 1/50
>>> A = mp.matrix(1000)                         # Sample a 1000 x 1000 Wishart matrix
>>> eigs = fa.eigvalsh(A, 100_000)              # Estimate the eigenvalues of 100000 x 100000
