faer

Documentation Crate

faer is a Rust crate that implements low level linear algebra routines and a high level wrapper for ease of use, in pure Rust. The aim is to provide a fully featured library for linear algebra with focus on portability, correctness, and performance.

See the official website and the docs.rs documentation for code examples and usage instructions.

Questions about using the library, contributing, and future directions can be discussed in the Discord server.

Contributing

If you'd like to contribute to faer, check out the list of "good first issue" issues. These are all (or should be) issues that are suitable for getting started, and they generally include a detailed set of instructions for what to do. Please ask questions on the Discord server or the issue itself if anything is unclear!

Minimum supported Rust version

The current MSRV is Rust 1.67.0.

Benchmarks

The benchmarks were run on an 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-11400 @ 2.60GHz with 12 threads.

  • nalgebra is used with the matrixmultiply backend
  • ndarray is used with the openblas backend
  • eigen is compiled with -march=native -O3 -fopenmp

All computations are done on column major matrices containing f64 values.

Matrix multiplication

Multiplication of two square matrices of dimension n.
