This paper investigates parallel solution methods to simulate large-scale macroeconometric models with forward-looking variables. The method chosen is the Newton-Krylov algorithm, and we concentrate on a parallel solution to the sparse linear system arising in the Newton algorithm. We...

A method for extracting information carrying eigenvalues of the correlation matrix is presented based on the topological transformation of the manifold defined by the data matrix itself. The transformation, performed with the use of the minimum spanning tree and the barycentric transformation,...

Let the kp-variate random vector X be partitioned into k subvectors Xi of dimension p each, and let the covariance matrix [Psi] of X be partitioned analogously into submatrices [Psi]ij. The common principal component (CPC) model for dependent random vectors assumes the existence of an orthogonal...

Recent advances have shown that block recursive approximate factorizations provide among the best preconditioners for solving elasticity equations on large 3D meshes such as arising in geomechanical applications. However, to get full efficiency of these methods, a wide range of implementation...
