The stochastic Lanczos quadrature method has garnered significant attention recently. Upon examination of the error analyses given by Ubaru, Chen and Saad and Cortinovis and Kressner, certain notable inconsistencies arise. It turns out that the former's results are valid for cases with symmetric quadrature nodes and may not be adequate for many practical cases such as estimating log determinant of matrices. This paper analyzes probabilistic error bound of the stochastic Lanczos quadrature method for cases with asymmetric quadrature nodes. Besides, an optimized error allocation technique is employed to minimize the overall number of matrix vector multiplications required by the stochastic Lanczos quadrature method.
