In one of my applications, I need to perform following task in R:
 
    
    svector <- array(0, dim=c(5, 100000, 360), 
dimnames=list(c('s1','s2','s3','s4','s5'), NULL, NULL)))
 
    
    tmatrix <- array(0, dim=c(100000, 360, 5, 5), dimnames=list(NULL, NULL, 
c('s1','s2','s3','s4','s5'), c('s1','s2','s3','s4','s5'))))
 
    #My algorithms compute all the elements in tmatrix  (transition matrix 
among states from time t to t+1, for all entities represented by l index)
 
    #do transition for all l for t=1 to 359
    for (l in 1:100000)
    {
       for(t in 1:359)
       {
          svector [, l,t+1] <- tmatrix[l,t,,] %*% svector [,l,t]
      }
   }
 
The double loops make computation slow. I have been trying to see I can treat 
the svector and tmatrix as tensors, and use mul.tensor in tensorR to vectorize 
the computation, but so far I ways get one message or another indicating my 
incorrect usage. Can tensorR or any other package be used here to simply the 
calculation? If it can, would you kindly give some sample code
 
Thank you in advance!
