# SolMATe - The Solidity Matrix Environment

![](https://img.shields.io/badge/PRs-welcome-brightgreen) ![](https://img.shields.io/badge/solidity-0.8.11-blue)

**SolMATe is the fundamental package for floating-point math, array manipulation, and linear algebra in Ethereum smart contracts.** With SolMATe you get:

- Gas-efficient operations with signed 59.18-decimal fixed-point numbers
- Functions for manipulating vectors and matrices
- Linear algebra routines enabling the implementation of machine learning algorithms, such as multivariate linear regression and deep neural networks

**SolMATe is the first-ever package making it possible to engage in all aspects of a machine learning pipeline directly on the blockchain** - from data collection to model training and evaluation - without having to involve an off-chain oracle. See below for an example of a key ML algorithm (multiple linear regression) implemented as a smart contract.

# Usage

The following smart contract performs multiple linear regression solving the equation `Ax=b`, where `A` is a matrix of coefficients, `b` is a vector of outputs, and `x` is the solution vector. It uses approximately `8e7` gas - making it impractical for Layer 1 applications but practical for Layer 2 as of 2022.

```solidity
// SPDX-License-Identifier: BSD-4-Clause
pragma solidity >=0.8.4;
import "prb-math/contracts/PRBMathSD59x18.sol";
import "./VectorUtils.sol";
import "./MatrixUtils.sol";

contract SolMATe_demo {
using PRBMathSD59x18 for int256;
using VectorUtils for int256[];
using MatrixUtils for int256[][];

function multipleLinearRegression(int256[][] memory a, int256[] memory b) public pure returns (int256[][] memory) {
int256[][] memory q;
int256[][] memory r;
int256[][] memory b_mat = b.convertTo59x18().toMatrix();
(q,r) = a.convertTo59x18().QRDecomposition();
return r.backSubstitute(q.T().dot(b_mat));
}
}
```

We can then run the contract using the following Hardhat script:

```javascript
// We require the Hardhat Runtime Environment explicitly here. This is optional
// but useful for running the script in a standalone fashion through `node `.
//
// When running the script with `npx hardhat run <script>` you'll find the Hardhat
// Runtime Environment's members available in the global scope.
const hre = require("hardhat");

async function main() {
// Hardhat always runs the compile task when running scripts with its command
// line interface.
//
// If this script is run directly using `node` you may want to call compile
// manually to make sure everything is compiled
// await hre.run('compile');

const SolMATe_demo = await hre.ethers.getContractFactory("SolMATe_demo");
const solmate_demo = await SolMATe_demo.deploy();

await solmate_demo.deployed();
const inputMat = [[43,1],[21,1],[25,1],[42,1],[57,1],[59,1]]
const b = [99,65,79,75,87,81]
const result = await solmate_demo.multipleLinearRegression(inputMat, b);
console.log(result);
}

// We recommend this pattern to be able to use async/await everywhere
// and properly handle errors.
main()
.then(() => process.exit(0))
.catch((error) => {
console.error(error);
process.exit(1);
});
```

In SolMATe, all fixed point numbers are scaled by `1e18` and stored as `int256` data. Importing the `PRBMathSD59x18` package allows one to perform math operations on these numbers.

```solidity
using PRBMathSD59x18 for int256;
int256 a = 1.5e18; // represents a = 1.5
int256 b = 2e18; // represents b = 2
a.mul(b); // returns 3e18, or 3000000000000000000, which represents 3
```
