Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention relate to sparsity-driven matrix representation. In one embodiment, a sparsity of a matrix is determined and the sparsity is compared to a threshold. Computer memory is allocated to store the matrix in a first data structure format based on the sparsity being greater than the threshold. Computer memory is allocated to store the matrix in a second data structure format based on the sparsity not being greater than the threshold.
