Description:
------------
  TooN (Tom's Object Oriented Numerics Library) is a numerics (Vectors and
Matrices) library for C++. The emphasis is on dealing with large numbers of
small operations efficiently. Type sizes can be determined statically at
compile time, which allows for compile time checking of correctness (e.g. in
matrix multiplication). Further, statically sized objects do not carry any
metadata. Dynamic sizes are also supported and can be freely mixed with
statically sized matrices and vectors. TooN is completely template based, so
no library needs to be compiled, just the headers need to be installed.

In addition to matrix algebra, TooN also supports:

Wrappers for BLAS (for large multiplications) and LAPACK for operations such
as singular value decomposition, symmetric eigen decomposition and LU
decomposition.

Parameterizations of special orthogonal and special euclidian transformations
in 3D, using an exponential map.

Efficient weighted pseudo inverse (using either SVD or Cholesky
decomposition).

Iterative reweighted least squares regression, using the efficient pseudo
inverse and a reweighting function object.


Toon is an optional component of the libcvd project, which was recently added
to savannah.nongnu.org. libcvd provides some computer vision techniques and
OpenGL wrappers for TooN.
