In this page we collect an inventory of numerical libraries in ITK base on the state of the code at the ITKv4-Alpha09 Git tag.

ITK Numerical Needs

ITK needs for numerical libraries fall in the following broad categories

Non-Linear Optimization
Fourier Transforms
- Alternatives to VXL fft, and to FFTW ?
Non-Linear Solvers
- Dense Matrices (typically small, less than 100x100)
- Sparse Matrices
- Large Sparse Matrices (e.g. FEM type problems)
Matrix Vector Operations
- A lot of them are
  - Matrix . Matrix operations (for matrix size 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, 3x4)
  - Matrix . Vector operations (for matrix size 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, 3x4)

ITK is focused on shared memory systems
- Multi-Core machines
- Exploits Multi-threaded implementations

ITK is intended to work in the most popular platforms.
