Performance Issues of SYRK Implementations in Shared Memory Environments for Edge Cases
The symmetric rank-k update (SYRK) is a level-3 BLAS routine commonly used by many Data Mining/Machine Learning(DM/ML) algorithms such as regression, dimensionality reduction algorithms like PCA, matrix factorization and k-mean clustering. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the SYRK routine under popular dense linear algebra libraries such as OpenBLAS, Intel M…
