We present a novel greedy Gauss-Seidel method for solving large linear least squares problem. This method improves the greedy randomized coordinate descent (GRCD) method proposed recently by Bai and Wu [Bai ZZ, and Wu WT. On greedy randomized coordinate descent methods for solving large linear least-squares problems. Numer Linear Algebra Appl. 2019;26(4):1–15], which in turn improves the popular randomized Gauss-Seidel method. Convergence analysis of the new method is provided. Numerical experiments show that, for the same accuracy, our method outperforms the GRCD method in term of the computing time.
