MATLAB residual: 2-norm 1.250161804204626e-07
PARDISO residual: 2-norm 1.186591757935306e+03
I don't understand why the PARDISO cannot produce the same accuracy as MATLAB A\\b.
Thanks for your help.

However, since you did not describe how you did this I cannot pinpoint the error.
You should get a residual 2-norm less than 1E-7 from PARDISO.

There are many reasons why you can't reproduce identical results, like:
1.Single-precision data type vs. Double-precision data type;
2.Differentimplementations ofthe samealgorithm (Rolled loops vs. Unrolled loops \ FP-emulator vs. SSE2 \ possible Vectorization);
3.If a GPU is used ( NVIDIA clearly states that results could be different );
4. Or, anything else, an error in calculations ( as already suggested )...
You could ran into troubles even with smaller matrices because of limitations of IEEE 754 standard ( especially for a single-precision data type ). Here is an example with 8x8 matrices:

Here are twovalues from the middle of your resultingdata sets:
...
1.640625000000001e-03 1.640620000000000e-03
...
Absolute Error = 0.000000005000000
Relative Error = 0.000003047628336
Percentage Error = 0.000304762833627%
It is assumed that PARDISO's value is a true value and Matlab's value is acalculated value.
So, I think this isbecause ofreasons 1, 2 or 3 from my previous post.

I will run your matrix and come back to you.
BTW, as I see you dumped a dence matrix - did you pass it in sparse format to PARDISO? I mean did you remove zero entries from the matrix or not?

I have solved the matrix with PARDISO MKL 10.3.5. Relative residual is 1E-15.
Did you switched weighted matching ON(iparm[12]=1)? It seems that with matching OFF the solution is really incorrect, but you should know that this option is intended precisely for improving accuracy and it's ON by default for unsymmetrical matrices.
I've attached the output of my program.

Konstantin

No, the result provided by PARDISO (1e-15 relative residual) is the most accurate that can be achieved in double precision arithmetics even theoretically.

iparm(12)
This parameter is reserved for future use. Its value must be set to 0.

I did not say anything about iparm(12) :) I referred to iparm[12] that is iparm(13) in Fortran.
Moreover, iparm(12) is also used in the latest version of MKL for new nice feature:
iparm(12)- solving with transposed or conjugate transposed matrix.
