[Numpy-discussion] numpy.dot and ACML
Hi all, I have managed to compile numpy using pathscale and ACML on a 64 bit AMD system. Now I wanted to verify that numpy.dot indeed uses the ACML libs. The example for dot() (http://www.scipy.org/Numpy_Example_List?highlight=%28example%29#head-c7a573f030ff7cbaea62baf219599b3976136bac) suggest a way of doing this: 1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] .../core $ python -c "import numpy; print id(numpy.dot)==id(numpy.core.multiarray.dot);" True This indicates that I am not using the acml libraries. When running a benchmark (see attach) and comparing to a non-ACML installation though, the strange thing is that there is a clear speed difference, suggesting again that the acml libraries are indeed used. Because this is not all that clear to me, I was wondering whether there exists an alternative way of verifying what libraries are used.

Not quite, you need LAPACK=None BLAS=None (ATLAS=None is only needed if ATLAS is being looked for specifically, i.e., system_info.atlas_info is used instead of system_info.lapack_opt_info in the setup.py. AFAIK, that's only used when debugging ATLAS installs in scipy). -- |>|\/|< /--\ |David M.

Indeed. eig and eigh are wrappers for lapack functions, so the result is whatever those give back. Do not rely on a particular order of eigenvalues, sort yourself.

[Numpy-discussion] linalg.eigh orders eigenvalues/eigenvectors differently than linalg.eig
Hello all, It seems that the 'eigh' routine from numpy.linalg does not follow the same convention as numpy.linalg.eig in terms of the order of the returned eigenvalues. (And thus eigenvectors as well...) Specifically, eig returns eigenvalues in order from largest to smallest, while eigh returns them from smallest to largest. Example: >>> a = numpy.array([[21, 28, 35],[28, 38, 48],[35, 48, 61]]) >>> numpy.linalg.eigh(a) (array([ -1.02825542e-14, 7.04131679e-01, 1.19295868e+02]), array([[ 0.40824829, -0.81314396, -0.41488581], [-0.81649658, -0.12200588, -0.56431188], [ 0.40824829, 0.56913221, -0.71373795]])) >>> numpy.linalg.eig(a) (array([ 1.19295868e+02, 7.04131679e-01, 4.62814557e-15]), array([[-0.41488581, -0.81314396, 0.40824829], [-0.56431188, -0.12200588, -0.81649658], [-0.71373795, 0.56913221, 0.40824829]])) Is this a bug? If it is, though, fixing it now might break code that depends on this 'wrong' order. (This is also present in scipy.linalg.) If not a bug, or not-fixable-now, then at least some documentation as to the convention regarding ordering of eigenvalues is probably worthwhile... Any thoughts?
