[Rcpp-devel] Using sparse matrices from the Matrix package in Rcpp

[Søren Højsgaard]

Thanks,

Will look at the RcppEigen package. For other purposes I already use the RBGL package which interfaces the boost graph library. However, the interface goes via S4 type methods - so everything is slow... ;)

I would suggest using the eigen library, Rccp has an interface to this. Alternately, you could link to the boost graph library.

Dear list



I have code for graph operations where I represent graphs as adjacency matrices (matrices with 0's and 1's). When graphs grow large storing all the 0's becomes uneconomical, so I want to use sparse matrices (from the Matrix package) for large graphs instead. Simple indexing operations like M[i,j] however are very slow, so I wonder if there are ways of dealing with sparse matrices (and rapid indexing) in the Rcpp framework. Apologies if I have overlooked posts on this topic.
