Re: GSOC 2017 Idea Improve logm, sqrtm, funm

Hi All,

These are some details relating to the project :

A) The implementation of matrix functions provided in [1] definitely works fine but needs some parts to be

implemented in C++, the student will need to use a profiler[2] to identify the slow areas in the m file scripts.

B) Also Higham also has some other important matrix functions which are missing in Octave, so next task can

be to implement them based on the same idea of utilizing C++ for slow code.
