QR factorizations and other rank-revealing factorizations


The ERCIM track “QR factorizations and other rank-revealing factorizations” will take place during the 3rd World Conference on “Computational Statistics & Data Analysis” which will be held in Limassol, Cyprus, 28-31 October 2005.

The Track will be devoted to the analysis of direct methods which determine the rank of matrices and solve linear least squares problems (standard LS, generalized LS or Total LS). The two cases of dense or sparse matrices are considered. Furthermore, papers discussing methods adapted to parallel computing are strongly encouraged. On special interest are the methods which end up with a complete orthogonal decomposition.

The Track will also focus on the solution of linear least squares problems arising in diverse applications such as natural sciences, industry, medicine and economics.

Selected papers will be published in a special issue of CSDA after the conference.
