IT++

IT++

IT++ is a C++ library composed of classes and functions for linear algebra (matrices and vectors), signal processing and telecommunication systems.It can also be used in areas such as machine learning and pattern recognition.

Templated vector and matrix classes are the core of the IT++ library, making its functionality similar to that of MATLAB and GNU Octave.

IT++ makes an extensive use of existing open source libraries (but not only) for increased functionality, speed and accuracy. In particular BLAS, LAPACK, ATLAS and FFTW libraries can be used.

History

The IT++ library originates from the former department of Information Theory at the Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden. Because the library is coded in C++, the name IT++ seemed like a good idea at the time. While departments come and go, IT++ has developed a life of its own and is now released under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL).
