I’ve been searching Google and Stack Overflow like crazy for days and have yet to find any recent, completely relevant information to answer the following question: What are the best C#/F#/.NET math libraries (specifically, those that wrap or implement the same functionality as Lapack, etc.)?
One of the better posts on Stack Overflow that I did see was: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3227647/open-source-math-library-for-f
The reason that that post, and other previous posts, didn’t sufficiently answer my question was that no systematic comparison of user experiences with various libraries was given.
I’m interested in how completely the following libraries (in real-world usage) implement Lapack (or a broad set of equivalent linear algebra of functionality); and, I’m curious about their performance relative to each other particularly on very large matrices. Also, I’d like to hear about others’ experiences utilizing the various libraries: difficulties, ease of use, etc.
Below is a comprehensive list of the “free”/opensource/affordable .NET/F#/C# math libraries which – as far as I know – have a linear algebra feature set. I’d deeply appreciate it if the community here on Stack Overflow would chip in with any experiences they have with the following libraries:
