The work focuses on improving the computing speed for LP evaluation. The proposed new method captures the long range global tilt effect by low order harmonics expansion, and evaluates the LP just by solving a small scale matrix eigenvalue problem. Numerical results show that even for extremely large perturbation the new method can obtain accurate results with very minimal computation.
