Hi John,
thanks for using Boost!
Boost.uBlas is a C++ template class library that primarily focuses on BLAS
level 1, 2, 3 functionality for dense, packed and sparse matrices, see
https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_74_0/libs/numeric/ublas/doc/overview.html#functionality
Recently, we also have introduced tensors.
Boost.uBlas is convient in terms familiarity and convenience if you have
already experience with Boost and its setup. You will have most basic
matrix operations such as matrix-matrix-multiplications. However, more
complex linear algebra routines are not yet included.
Eigen is a framework itself and provides you with more functionality for
now.
Good luck with your software project.
Best,
CB
