LSQR

Solves large, sparse linear least squares problem, as well as unsymmetric linear systems.

Main features

  • LSQR solves any of the three problems below or min ||b - Ax||_2 if damp = 0:
     
    Problem Comments
    Ax = b Matrix A should be large, sparse and non-symmetric.
    min ||b - Ax||_2 Large, sparse linear least squares problem.
    min || (b ; 0) - ( A; damp*I ) x ||_2 Damped large, sparse linear least squares problem.

     
  • LSQR uses an iterative (conjugate-gradient-like) method. For further information, see the references in the table below:
