SMG2S: Scalable Matrix Generator with Given Spectrum

SMG2S

Iterative linear algebra methods are the important parts of the overall computing time of applications in various fields since decades. Recent research related to social networking, big data, machine learning and artificial intelligence has increased the necessity for non-hermitian solvers associated with much larger sparse matrices and graphs. The analysis of the iterative method behaviors for such problems is complex, and it is necessary to evaluate their convergence to solve extremely large non-Hermitian eigenvalue and linear problems on parallel and/or distributed machines. This convergence depends on the properties of spectra. Then, it is necessary to generate large matrices with known spectra to benchmark the methods. These matrices should be non-Hermitian and non- trivial, with very high dimension. A scalable parallel matrix generator SMG2S that uses the user-defined spectrum to construct large-scale sparse matrices and ensures their eigenvalues as the given ones with high accuracy is implemented based on MPI and C++11. This is the Python interface of SMG2S.
