PyRSB: a Cython-based Python interface to librsb
Project description
PyRSB
librsb is a high performance sparse matrix library implementing the Recursive Sparse Blocks format, which is especially well suited for multiplications in iterative methods on very large sparse matrices.
PyRSB is a Cython-based Python interface to librsb.
On multicore machines, PyRSB can be several times faster than e.g. scipy.sparse.csr_matrix()
.
For an example how to invoke it with minimal overhead, see the advanced example.
So far, PyRSB is a prototype tested on Linux only. The librsb library instead is mature and well tested. Prospective PyRSB users and collaborators are welcome to contact me.
Features
The following functionality is implemented:
- Initialization with
rsb.rsb_matrix()
styled asscipy.sparse.csr_matrix()
. - Conversion from
scipy.sparse.csr_matrix()
. - Multiplication by vector/multivector.
- Rows/columns through
nr=a.shape()[0]
/nr=a.shape()[1]
, ornr()
/nc()
. find()
,find_block()
,tril()
,triu()
,shape()
,nnz
.print
'able.- PyRSB-Specific:
autotune()
,do_print()
. - load from a Matrix Market file, e.g.
rsb_matrix(bytes(filename,encoding='utf-8'))
Build and Use
- If you want the
Makefile
to build librsb (in this directory):make all-local
will attempt downloading librsb-1.3.0.0 from the web and building it here before building pyrsb. If the file is in place, it won't download it a second time. After that,make local-librsb-pyrsb
(ormake lp
) will build pyrsb using local librsb, then run it. This method shall use the best compilation flags. - If you have librsb already installed:
make
shall build and test. - Make sure you have
cython
,scipy
,numpy
. installed. - If you don't have librsb installed you may want to try via pip
pip install pyrsb
- If you want to install librsb on Ubuntu or Debian:
sudo apt-get install librsb-dev
shall suffice. Other operating systems have librsb, too. Please check yours. Or check librsb's web site. make test
will test benchmark code usingtest.py
(to compare speed to SciPy)make b
will also produce graphs (requiresgnuplot
)
Example Usage

print(y)
# import rsb # import operators
# a.autotune() # makes only sense for large matrices
y = y + a * x
# equivalent to y=y+c*x
