CHMfactor-class: CHOLMOD-based Cholesky factorizations
Description
The hidden class "CHMfactor"
is a class of
CHOLMOD-based Cholesky factorizations of symmetric, sparse,
compressed, column-oriented matrices. Such a factorization is
simplicial (hidden class "CHMsimpl"
) or supernodal (hidden
class "CHMsuper"
). Objects that inherit from these classes are either numeric
factorizations (classes "dCHMsimpl"
and "dCHMsuper"
) or
symbolic factorizations (classes "dCHMsimpl"
and "dCHMsuper"
).Objects from the Class
Objects can be created by calls of the form new("dCHMsuper", ...)
but are more commonly created from chol
applied to
dsCMatrix
or lsCMatrix
objects.
