Detailed Description

template<typename _MatrixType, typename _Preconditioner>
class Eigen::BiCGSTAB< _MatrixType, _Preconditioner >

A bi conjugate gradient stabilized solver for sparse square problems.

This class allows to solve for A.x = b sparse linear problems using a bi conjugate gradient stabilized algorithm. The vectors x and b can be either dense or sparse.

Template Parameters:
_MatrixType the type of the sparse matrix A, can be a dense or a sparse matrix.
_Preconditioner the type of the preconditioner. Default is DiagonalPreconditioner

The maximal number of iterations and tolerance value can be controlled via the setMaxIterations() and setTolerance() methods. The defaults are the size of the problem for the maximal number of iterations and NumTraits<Scalar>::epsilon() for the tolerance.

This class can be used as the direct solver classes. Here is a typical usage example:

 int n = 10000;
 VectorXd x(n), b(n);
 SparseMatrix<double> A(n,n);
 // fill A and b
 BiCGSTAB<SparseMatrix<double> > solver;
 solver.compute(A);
 x = solver.solve(b);
 std::cout << "#iterations:     " << solver.iterations() << std::endl;
 std::cout << "estimated error: " << solver.error()      << std::endl;
 // update b, and solve again
 x = solver.solve(b);

By default the iterations start with x=0 as an initial guess of the solution. One can control the start using the solveWithGuess() method.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

BiCGSTAB (  )  [inline]

Default constructor.

BiCGSTAB ( const MatrixType &  A  )  [inline]

Initialize the solver with matrix A for further Ax=b solving.

This constructor is a shortcut for the default constructor followed by a call to compute().

Warning:
this class stores a reference to the matrix A as well as some precomputed values that depend on it. Therefore, if A is changed this class becomes invalid. Call compute() to update it with the new matrix A, or modify a copy of A.

Member Function Documentation

BiCGSTAB< _MatrixType, _Preconditioner > & analyzePattern ( const MatrixType &  A  )  [inline, inherited]

Initializes the iterative solver for the sparcity pattern of the matrix A for further solving Ax=b problems.

Currently, this function mostly call analyzePattern on the preconditioner. In the future we might, for instance, implement column reodering for faster matrix vector products.

BiCGSTAB< _MatrixType, _Preconditioner > & compute ( const MatrixType &  A  )  [inline, inherited]

Initializes the iterative solver with the matrix A for further solving Ax=b problems.

Currently, this function mostly initialized/compute the preconditioner. In the future we might, for instance, implement column reodering for faster matrix vector products.

Warning:
this class stores a reference to the matrix A as well as some precomputed values that depend on it. Therefore, if A is changed this class becomes invalid. Call compute() to update it with the new matrix A, or modify a copy of A.
RealScalar error (  )  const [inline, inherited]
Returns:
the tolerance error reached during the last solve
BiCGSTAB< _MatrixType, _Preconditioner > & factorize ( const MatrixType &  A  )  [inline, inherited]

Initializes the iterative solver with the numerical values of the matrix A for further solving Ax=b problems.

Currently, this function mostly call factorize on the preconditioner.

Warning:
this class stores a reference to the matrix A as well as some precomputed values that depend on it. Therefore, if A is changed this class becomes invalid. Call compute() to update it with the new matrix A, or modify a copy of A.
