    Can Different Access Patterns Improve a Matrix's Condition Number?

    I found the problem. Turns out that the GPU typically has some round-off error that will benefit the GPU for iterative solvers such that the higher precision of the CPU will take more iterations to converge. The small inaccuracies of the GPU become magnified when doing large sets of...

    Can Different Access Patterns Improve a Matrix's Condition Number?

    You are right - it doesn't make sense to me either. I was just wondering if there was an obvious and therefore easy reason. Thank you for your help and time.

    Can Different Access Patterns Improve a Matrix's Condition Number?

    Never mind about my initial post, the order of operations as applied to column major versus row major will have no effect on the condition number of the matrix. The access order should not effect the Eigenvalue Spectral Radius. Does anyone have any clue as to why a iterative algorithm, such...

    Can Different Access Patterns Improve a Matrix's Condition Number?

    Hello all, I am new to this forum but am glad I found it, I have a quick question about condition numbers and order of operations. Given a symmetric positive-definitive matrix with a initial condition number α, is it possible to improve that condition number with a different access...
