title: 'dbMatrix: Database-Backed Matrix Classes and Operations'
version: 0.1.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.dbMatrix
abstract: Provides S4 classes and methods for storing dense and sparse matrices in
  'DuckDB' databases. The package supports constructing database-backed matrices from
  base R and 'Matrix' objects, extracting slices and summaries, performing arithmetic
  and selected linear algebra operations, and materializing results for larger-than-memory
  workflows. It integrates with 'dbProject' to keep database paths, live connections,
  and lazy matrix tables synchronized across interactive analyses.
