Rectangular matrix

Matrix—rectangular array of numbers treated as a single mathematical entity. 

Equation (3.13) is a natural generalization to rectangular matrices of formula (E.14) from Appendix E for square matrices. Thus, minimization of the misfit functional opens a way to construct a generalized inverse matrix for any matrix, rectangular or square, with the only limitation being that the elements of the diagonal matrix Q are not equal to zero Q, 7 0, z = 1,2,. L. 

It thus follows that only square matrices with determinants different from zero have an inverse matrix. Rectangular matrices can be defined to have a generalized inverse... 

Lcularly popular [Taylor and Orengo 1989], The method is so named because it uses two amic programming steps. In the first step, it is necessary to determine the score for each of residues, one from each structure. These scores are used to fill a rectangular H matrix, irich dynamic programming is applied to determine the optimal alignment. 

As Equation (6.7) shows in each of ( - k) rows in the rectangular sub-matrix we need to evaluate (n k) multipliers and carry out (n - k + I) multiplications, therefore the total number of operations required is calculated as... 

Can a rectangular matrix be both premultiplied and postmultiplied into its own transpose, or must multiplication be either pre- or post- for conformability If multiplication must be either one or the other, which is it ... 

The elasticity approaches depend to a great extent on the specific geometry of the composite material as well as on the characteristics of the fibers and the matrix. The fibers can be hollow or solid, but are usually circular in cross section, although rectangular-cross-section fibers are not uncommon. In addition, fibeie rejjsuallyjsotropic, but can have more complex material behavior, e.g., graphite fibers are transversely isotropic. 

A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers, its size being determined by the number of rows and columns in the array. In this context, the primary concern is with square matrices, and matrices of column dimension 1 (column vectors) and row dimension 1 (row vectors). 

Triphosphorus anion Pj" (16e) was calculated to be linear [11]. Honea et al. [12] prepared and isolated Si (16e) by low-energy deposition into a solid nitrogen matrix, and carried out a Raman spectra study to show that Si is a planar rhombus The Al " tetraanion (16e) stabilized by the three LP ions in the most stable structure of LijAl " is rectangular in a capped octahedral arrangement [13],... 

The heat transfer model, energy and material balance equations plus boundary condition and initial conditions are shown in Figure 4. The energy balance partial differential equation (PDE) (Equation 10) assumes two dimensional axial conduction. Figure 5 illustrates the rectangular cross-section of the composite part. Convective boundary conditions are implemented at the interface between the walls and the polymer matrix. 

A matrix is defined as an ordered rectangular arrangement of scalars into horizontal rows and vertical columns (Section 9.3). On the one hand, one can consider a matrix X with n rows and p columns as an ordered array of p vectors of dimension n, each of the form ... 

By way of example we construct a positive semi-definite matrix A of dimensions 2x2 from which we propose to determine the characteristic roots. The square matrix A is derived as the product of a rectangular matrix X with its transpose in order to ensure symmetry and positive semi-definitiveness ... 

Singular value decomposition (SVD) of a rectangular matrix X is a method which yields at the same time a diagonal matrix of singular values A and the two matrices of singular vectors U and V such that ... 

In the previous section we have developed principal components analysis (PCA) from the fundamental theorem of singular value decomposition (SVD). In particular we have shown by means of eq. (31.1) how an nxp rectangular data matrix X can be decomposed into an nxr orthonormal matrix of row-latent vectors U, a pxr orthonormal matrix of column-latent vectors V and an rxr diagonal matrix of latent values A. Now we focus on the geometrical interpretation of this algebraic decomposition. 

The power algorithm [21] is the simplest iterative method for the calculation of latent vectors and latent values from a square symmetric matrix. In contrast to NIPALS, which produces an orthogonal decomposition of a rectangular data table X, the power algorithm decomposes a square symmetric matrix of cross-products X which we denote by C. Note that Cp is called the column-variance-covariance matrix when the data in X are column-centered.

From the definition of C it is clear that the rectangular C matrix of the previous case becomes now the square U matrix, so that P can always be written, when M = N, as... 

Finally, one may suggest a third way of solving this problem by further investigating McWeeny s theorem of decomposition [13]. Consider first a general matrix P of M2 dimensions. If this P matrix is of rank r, r < M it is then always decomposable into a product of two rectangular matrices of respective shapes, (M x r) and (r x M) [23]. Now consider each of the three constraints onP ... 

A matrix is an array of numbers. For most practical purposes it is rectangular. Thus, a matrix is an array such as... 

The inverse, A 1, of a matrix A is defined by the celadon AA = E. If A is a square matrix, its inverse may exist - although not necessarily so. This question is addressed later in this section. Rectangular, nonsquace, matrices may...

By definition, a numerical matrix is a rectangular array of numbers (termed elements ) enclosed by square brackets [ ]. Matrices can be used to organize information such as size versus cost in a grocery department, or they may be used to simplify the problems associated with systems or groups of linear equations. Later in this chapter we will introduce the operations involved for linear equations (see Table 2-1 for common symbols used).
