 Additionally, matrix details are displayed on each matrix's individual page, including the matrix's rank, condition number, and information regarding its singular value decomposition. A variety of visualizations are also presented, including sparsity patterns, force-directed graph (or bipartite graph) visualizations [@hu2005efficient], Dulmage-Mendelsohn permuted sparsity patterns, and singular values plotted in decreasing size.
 
-Matrices can also be quickly accessed by URL route matching. For example, the information page for the matrix HB/west0479 can be accessed directly by visiting [`sparse.tamu.edu/HB/west0479`](https://sparse.tamu.edu/HB/west0479). Information on the Mycielski group of matrices can be accessed by visiting [`sparse.tamu.edu/Mycielski`](https://sparse.tamu.edu/Mycielski).
