Description

The vslConvSetInternalPrecision/vslCorrSetInternalPrecision routine changes the value of the parameter internal_precision for the operation of convolution or correlation. This parameter defines whether the internal computations of the convolution or correlation result should be done in single or double precision. Initial value for internal_precision is assigned by a task constructor and set to either "single" or "double" according to the particular flavor of the constructor used.

Changing the internal_precision can be useful if the default setting of this parameter was "single" but you want to calculate the result with double precision even if input and output data are represented in single precision.

Predefined values for the internal_precision input parameter are as follows:

Values of internal_precision Parameter

VSL_CORR_PRECISION_SINGLE
