Revisiting the D-iteration method: from theoretical to practical computation cost (1203.6030v1)

Abstract: In this paper, we revisit the D-iteration algorithm in order to better explain its connection to the Gauss-Seidel method and different performance results that were observed. In particular, we study here the practical computation cost based on the execution runtime compared to the theoretical number of iterations. We also propose an exact formula of the error for PageRank class of equations.
