Numerical Analysis: A Comparison of Sparse vs. Non-Sparse Matrix Performance in MATLab

Abstract

This project is an in-depth analysis of error and computational limitations of sparse versus non-sparse matrices in MATLab. It examines performance of the two matrix types by incrementally increasing processor loads of a sinusoidal pile function.

As processing requirements increase, the sparse matrix begins to drastically outperform the non-sparse matrix computation.
