PyLops Utilities

Alongside with its Linear Operators and Solvers, PyLops contains also a number of auxiliary routines performing universal tasks that are used by several operators or simply within one or more Tutorials for the preparation of input data and subsequent visualization of results.

trace_hutchpp(Op[, neval, sampler, backend]) Trace of linear operator using the Hutch++ method.
