Not sure if this is significant, but if it is, it needs far more information and references. As the article is, it seems a good fit for deletion. | Naypta^talk opened his mouth at 16:56, 1 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I added what appears to be the original source for this, a paper by Rybicki and Press (obviously they don't give the algorithm the name it has here). Their paper has 44 citations in Google scholar, possibly enough for notability, but other than a recent arXiv preprint generalizing this method (not yet published and therefore not yet reliable) I didn't find much in the way of nontrivial coverage in secondary sources. If this is kept, it should be moved to Rybicki–Press algorithm. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:30, 7 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - the article fails to describe why the equation might be notable nor provides any references that support notability.--Rpclod (talk) 04:49, 16 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - although I can see citations to the research, what I cannot find is anything indicating that this algorithm is particularly significant or important. Mathematicians who are interested in linear algebra might find it interesting, but that does not mean it is notable, as defined by Wikipedia.
