Abstract

In this paper, we give a general projection algorithm for implementing some known extrapolation methods such as the MPE, the RRE, the MMPE and others. We apply this algorithm to vectors generated linearly and derive new algorithms for solving systems of linear equations. We will show that these algorithms allow us to obtain known projection methods such as the Orthodir or the GCR.
