I would use a memoized descriptor for that and have it evaluate when called.

Amazingly, i can't find public examples of Python memoize decorators that 
aren't overwrought.    we use one that is completely efficient and simple:

class memoized_property(object):
    """A read-only @property that is only evaluated once."""

    def __init__(self, fget, doc=None):
        self.fget = fget
        self.__doc__ = doc or fget.__doc__
        self.__name__ = fget.__name__

    def __get__(self, obj, cls):
        if obj is None:
            return self
        obj.__dict__[self.__name__] = result = self.fget(obj)
        return result


then you can just set it up as:

class Planning(...):
    @memoized_property
    def matrix(self):
        return self.matrix_factor(self.stops)
