Description

Session Goal

The goal of this session was to analyze and enhance the Gauss-Seidel method for solving numerical systems, focusing on convergence issues and implementation improvements.

Key Activities

• Convergence Analysis: Conducted a detailed analysis of the Gauss-Seidel method’s convergence properties, examining the spectral radius of the iteration matrix and its impact on convergence.
• Error Identification: Identified errors in the method’s implementation, particularly in the update of x values and initial conditions.
• Method Improvement: Developed an improved version of the Gauss-Seidel method in Python, enhancing error checking and iteration consistency.

Achievements

• Clarified the relationship between spectral radius and convergence.
• Corrected implementation errors and improved the algorithm’s robustness.

Pending Tasks

• Further testing of the improved implementation with different initial vectors.
• Validation of results against known solutions to ensure accuracy.
