version: 0.1.0
abstract: Implements recent randomized algorithms that answer questions about a large
  positive-semidefinite matrix while touching only a small part of it. Randomly pivoted
  Cholesky builds a low-rank approximation from a few rows of a kernel matrix (Chen,
  Epperly, Tropp and Webber (2025) <https://doi.org/10.1002/cpa.22234>), with an accelerated
  variant based on rejection sampling (Epperly, Tropp and Webber (2025) <https://doi.org/10.1137/24m1699048>).
  The XTrace, XNysTrace and XDiag estimators recover the trace and diagonal of a matrix
  that is available only through matrix-vector products (Epperly, Tropp and Webber
  (2024) <https://doi.org/10.1137/23m1548323>), alongside the Hutch++ estimator of
  Meyer, Musco, Musco and Woodruff (2021) <https://doi.org/10.1137/1.9781611976496.16>.
  Randomized Nystrom preconditioning speeds up the conjugate gradient method for regularized
  linear systems (Frangella, Tropp and Udell (2023) <https://doi.org/10.1137/21m1466244>).
  These pieces are combined to fit restricted maximum likelihood variance-component
  models on genomic relationship matrices without forming or factorizing the covariance
  matrix.
