如何在 Eigen 中声明稀疏矩阵的向量

Question

To declare a vector of dense matrix in Eigen I am using the following format

std::vector<Eigen::MatrixXd> AMAT(idx, Eigen::MatrixXd::Zero(1000,1000));

where idx is the vector size. Is there an equivalent declaration to define a sparse matrix? I am currently declaring a sparse matrix as

Eigen::SparseMatrix<double>  BMAT(1000,1000);

It will be more efficient for to me define a vector of such matrix instead of declaring separate sparse matrix for each index. Any help is appreciated.

Seeing you want the matrices in the vector to have differen sizes, you should probably not use that initialization constructor for std::vector .

Instead just build-up the vector element by element:

#include <Eigen/Sparse>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>

int main() {
    auto sizes = { 100, 200, 300 };

    std::vector<Eigen::SparseMatrix<double>> BMATvec;
    BMATvec.reserve(sizes.size());

    std::transform(cbegin(sizes), cend(sizes), back_inserter(BMATvec),
        [](auto size) { return Eigen::SparseMatrix<double>(size,size);});
}
