I'm trying to use breeze to test some of my own code.
I.e., I have some code that computes exp(M).
I'd like to test using breeze.
My testing code computes (u,s,v) by calling svd(m)
Then I compute: exp(m) = u * (s.map {x:Double => math.exp(x)}) * v

There are two issues I see.  Are these known issues?  Or do I need to prepare a test case and file a bug report?   I'm a 1st time user, so maybe these are known issues?

1.  I get a bunch of unwanted INFO messages of the form:

Apr 04, 2021 11:35:58 AM com.github.fommil.jni.JniLoader liberalLoad
INFO: successfully loaded 
Apr 04, 2021 11:35:58 AM com.github.fommil.jni.JniLoader load

2. java.lang.IllegalArgumentException on the following code

val dm = DenseMatrix.tabulate(dim, dim){case (i, j) => this(i,j)}
val svd.SVD(u,s,v) = svd(dm)
println(s"dm=[$dm]")
println(s"u=[$u]")
println(s"s=[$s]")
println(s"v=[$v]")
println("exp lambda = " + (s.map {x:Double => math.exp(x)}))

val em = u * (s.map {x:Double => math.exp(x)}) * v



Here is the output

dm=[-0.9315079940605946  -0.8636480438490705

I figured out problem #2.  The middle value returned from svd is not a nxn diagonal matrix, but rather a vector. I can convert it back to a matrix with the diag function

The info messages should only show up the first the time any breeze function is called. Netlib-java uses java's builtin java.util.logging stuff and can be configured that way. It's a bit of a pain to do honestly.
