A New Cyclic Gradient Method Adapted to Large-Scale Linear Systems

Abstract

This paper proposes a new gradient method to solve the large-scale problems. Theoretical analysis shows that the new method has finite termination property for two dimensions and converges R-linearly for any dimensions. Experimental results illustrate first the issue of parallel implementation. Then, the solution of a large-scale problem shows that the new method is better than the others, even competitive with the conjugate gradient method.
