Dense Bunch-Kaufman Factorizations

Description

Classes BunchKaufman and pBunchKaufman represent Bunch-Kaufman factorizations of n×nn \times n real, symmetric matrices AA, having the general form

A=UDUU=LDLLA = U D_{U} U' = L D_{L} L'

where DUD_{U} and DLD_{L} are symmetric, block diagonal matrices composed of bUb_{U} and bLb_{L} 1×11 \times 1 or 2×22 \times 2 diagonal blocks; U=k=1bUPkUkU = \prod_{k = 1}^{b_{U}} P_{k} U_{k} is the product of bUb_{U} row-permuted unit upper triangular matrices, each having nonzero entries above the diagonal in 1 or 2 columns; and L=k=1bLPkLkL = \prod_{k = 1}^{b_{L}} P_{k} L_{k} is the product of bLb_{L} row-permuted unit lower triangular matrices, each having nonzero entries below the diagonal in 1 or 2 columns.

These classes store the nonzero entries of the 2bU+12 b_{U} + 1 or 2bL+12 b_{L} + 1 factors, which are individually sparse, in a dense format as a vector of length nnnn (BunchKaufman) or n(n+1)/2n(n+1)/2 (pBunchKaufman), the latter giving the “packed” representation.

Slots

Dim, Dimnames

inherited from virtual class MatrixFactorization.

uplo

a string, either "U" or "L", indicating which triangle (upper or lower) of the factorized symmetric matrix was used to compute the factorization and in turn how the x slot is partitioned.

x

a numeric vector of length n*n (BunchKaufman) or n*(n+1)/2 (pBunchKaufman), where n=Dim[1]. The details of the representation are specified by the manual for LAPACK routines dsytrf and dsptrf.

perm

an integer vector of length n=Dim[1] specifying row and column interchanges as described in the manual for LAPACK routines dsytrf and dsptrf.

Extends

Class BunchKaufmanFactorization, directly. Class MatrixFactorization, by class BunchKaufmanFactorization, distance 2.

Instantiation

Objects can be generated directly by calls of the form new("BunchKaufman", ...) or new("pBunchKaufman", ...), but they are more typically obtained as the value of BunchKaufman(x) for x inheriting from dsyMatrix or dspMatrix.

Methods

coerce

signature(from = "BunchKaufman", to = "dtrMatrix"): returns a dtrMatrix, useful for inspecting the internal representation of the factorization; see ‘Note’.

coerce

signature(from = "pBunchKaufman", to = "dtpMatrix"): returns a dtpMatrix, useful for inspecting the internal representation of the factorization; see ‘Note’.

determinant

signature(from = "p?BunchKaufman", logarithm = "logical"): computes the determinant of the factorized matrix AA or its logarithm.

expand1

signature(x = "p?BunchKaufman"): see expand1-methods.

expand2

signature(x = "p?BunchKaufman"): see expand2-methods.

solve

signature(a = "p?BunchKaufman", b = .): see solve-methods.

Note

In Matrix < 1.6-0, class BunchKaufman extended dtrMatrix and class pBunchKaufman extended dtpMatrix, reflecting the fact that the internal representation of the factorization is fundamentally triangular: there are n(n+1)/2n(n+1)/2 “parameters”, and these can be arranged systematically to form an n×nn \times n triangular matrix. Matrix 1.6-0 removed these extensions so that methods would no longer be inherited from dtrMatrix and dtpMatrix. The availability of such methods gave the wrong impression that BunchKaufman and pBunchKaufman represent a (singular) matrix, when in fact they represent an ordered set of matrix factors.

The coercions as(., "dtrMatrix") and as(., "dtpMatrix") are provided for users who understand the caveats.

Methods for Bunch-Kaufman Factorization

Description

Computes the Bunch-Kaufman factorization of an n×nn \times n real, symmetric matrix AA, which has the general form

A=UDUU=LDLLA = U D_{U} U' = L D_{L} L'

where DUD_{U} and DLD_{L} are symmetric, block diagonal matrices composed of bUb_{U} and bLb_{L} 1×11 \times 1 or 2×22 \times 2 diagonal blocks; U=k=1bUPkUkU = \prod_{k = 1}^{b_{U}} P_{k} U_{k} is the product of bUb_{U} row-permuted unit upper triangular matrices, each having nonzero entries above the diagonal in 1 or 2 columns; and L=k=1bLPkLkL = \prod_{k = 1}^{b_{L}} P_{k} L_{k} is the product of bLb_{L} row-permuted unit lower triangular matrices, each having nonzero entries below the diagonal in 1 or 2 columns.

Methods are built on LAPACK routines dsytrf and dsptrf.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'matrix'
BunchKaufman(x, uplo = "U", ...)

warnSing

a logical indicating if a warning should be signaled for singular x.

uplo

a string, either "U" or "L", indicating which triangle of x should be used to compute the factorization.

...

further arguments passed to or from methods.

Albers' example Matrix with "Difficult" Eigen Factorization

Description

An example of a sparse matrix for which eigen() seemed to be difficult, an unscaled version of this has been posted to the web, accompanying an E-mail to R-help (https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help), by Casper J Albers, Open University, UK.

Usage

data(CAex)

Format

This is a 72×7272 \times 72 symmetric matrix with 216 non-zero entries in five bands, stored as sparse matrix of class dgCMatrix.

Details

Historical note (2006-03-30): In earlier versions of R, eigen(CAex) fell into an infinite loop whereas eigen(CAex, EISPACK=TRUE) had been okay.

Examples

data(CAex, package = "Matrix")
str(CAex) # of class "dgCMatrix"

image(CAex)# -> it's a simple band matrix with 5 bands
## and the eigen values are basically 1 (42 times) and 0 (30 x):
zapsmall(ev <- eigen(CAex, only.values=TRUE)$values)
## i.e., the matrix is symmetric, hence
sCA <- as(CAex, "symmetricMatrix")
## and
stopifnot(class(sCA) == "dsCMatrix",
          as(sCA, "matrix") == as(CAex, "matrix"))

Sparse Cholesky Factorizations

Description

CHMfactor is the virtual class of sparse Cholesky factorizations of n×nn \times n real, symmetric matrices AA, having the general form

P1AP1=L1DL1=Djj0LLP_1 A P_1' = L_1 D L_1' \overset{D_{jj} \ge 0}{=} L L'

or (equivalently)

A=P1L1DL1P1=Djj0P1LLP1A = P_1' L_1 D L_1' P_1 \overset{D_{jj} \ge 0}{=} P_1' L L' P_1

where P1P_1 is a permutation matrix, L1L_1 is a unit lower triangular matrix, DD is a diagonal matrix, and L=L1DL = L_1 \sqrt{D}. The second equalities hold only for positive semidefinite AA, for which the diagonal entries of DD are non-negative and D\sqrt{D} is well-defined.

The implementation of class CHMfactor is based on CHOLMOD's C-level cholmod_factor_struct. Virtual subclasses CHMsimpl and CHMsuper separate the simplicial and supernodal variants. These have nonvirtual subclasses [dn]CHMsimpl and [dn]CHMsuper, where prefix ‘⁠d⁠’ and prefix ‘⁠n⁠’ are reserved for numeric and symbolic factorizations, respectively.

Usage

isLDL(x)

Arguments

x

an object inheriting from virtual class CHMfactor, almost always the result of a call to generic function Cholesky.

Value

isLDL(x) returns TRUE or FALSE: TRUE if x stores the lower triangular entries of L1I+DL_1-I+D, FALSE if x stores the lower triangular entries of LL.

Slots

Of CHMfactor:

Dim, Dimnames

inherited from virtual class MatrixFactorization.

colcount

an integer vector of length Dim[1] giving an estimate of the number of nonzero entries in each column of the lower triangular Cholesky factor. If symbolic analysis was performed prior to factorization, then the estimate is exact.

perm

a 0-based integer vector of length Dim[1] specifying the permutation applied to the rows and columns of the factorized matrix. perm of length 0 is valid and equivalent to the identity permutation, implying no pivoting.

type

an integer vector of length 6 specifying details of the factorization. The elements correspond to members ordering, is_ll, is_super, is_monotonic, maxcsize, and maxesize of the original cholmod_factor_struct. Simplicial and supernodal factorizations are distinguished by is_super. Simplicial factorizations do not use maxcsize or maxesize. Supernodal factorizations do not use is_ll or is_monotonic.

Of CHMsimpl (all unused by nCHMsimpl):

nz

an integer vector of length Dim[1] giving the number of nonzero entries in each column of the lower triangular Cholesky factor. There is at least one nonzero entry in each column, because the diagonal elements of the factor are stored explicitly.

p

an integer vector of length Dim[1]+1. Row indices of nonzero entries in column j of the lower triangular Cholesky factor are obtained as i[p[j]+seq_len(nz[j])]+1.

i

an integer vector of length greater than or equal to sum(nz) containing the row indices of nonzero entries in the lower triangular Cholesky factor. These are grouped by column and sorted within columns, but the columns themselves need not be ordered monotonically. Columns may be overallocated, i.e., the number of elements of i reserved for column j may exceed nz[j].

prv, nxt

integer vectors of length Dim[1]+2 indicating the order in which the columns of the lower triangular Cholesky factor are stored in i and x. Starting from j <- Dim[1]+2, the recursion j <- nxt[j+1]+1 traverses the columns in forward order and terminates when nxt[j+1] = -1. Starting from j <- Dim[1]+1, the recursion j <- prv[j+1]+1 traverses the columns in backward order and terminates when prv[j+1] = -1.

Of dCHMsimpl:

x

a numeric vector parallel to i containing the corresponding nonzero entries of the lower triangular Cholesky factor LL or (if and only if type[2] is 0) of the lower triangular matrix L1I+DL_1-I+D.

Of CHMsuper:

super, pi, px

integer vectors of length nsuper+1, where nsuper is the number of supernodes. super[j]+1 is the index of the leftmost column of supernode j. The row indices of supernode j are obtained as s[pi[j]+seq_len(pi[j+1]-pi[j])]+1. The numeric entries of supernode j are obtained as x[px[j]+seq_len(px[j+1]-px[j])]+1 (if slot x is available).

s

an integer vector of length greater than or equal to Dim[1] containing the row indices of the supernodes. s may contain duplicates, but not within a supernode, where the row indices must be increasing.

Of dCHMsuper:

x

a numeric vector of length less than or equal to prod(Dim) containing the numeric entries of the supernodes.

Extends

Class MatrixFactorization, directly.

Instantiation

Objects can be generated directly by calls of the form new("dCHMsimpl", ...), etc., but dCHMsimpl and dCHMsuper are more typically obtained as the value of Cholesky(x, ...) for x inheriting from sparseMatrix (often dsCMatrix).

There is currently no API outside of calls to new for generating nCHMsimpl and nCHMsuper. These classes are vestigial and may be formally deprecated in a future version of Matrix.

Methods

coerce

signature(from = "CHMsimpl", to = "dtCMatrix"): returns a dtCMatrix representing the lower triangular Cholesky factor LL or the lower triangular matrix L1I+DL_1-I+D, the latter if and only if from@type[2] is 0.

coerce

signature(from = "CHMsuper", to = "dgCMatrix"): returns a dgCMatrix representing the lower triangular Cholesky factor LL. Note that, for supernodes spanning two or more columns, the supernodal algorithm by design stores non-structural zeros above the main diagonal, hence dgCMatrix is indeed more appropriate than dtCMatrix as a coercion target.

determinant

signature(from = "CHMfactor", logarithm = "logical"): behaves according to an optional argument sqrt. If sqrt = FALSE, then this method computes the determinant of the factorized matrix AA or its logarithm. If sqrt = TRUE, then this method computes the determinant of the factor L=L1sqrt(D)L = L_1 sqrt(D) or its logarithm, giving NaN for the modulus when DD has negative diagonal elements. For backwards compatibility, the default value of sqrt is TRUE, but that can be expected change in a future version of Matrix, hence defensive code will always set sqrt (to TRUE, if the code must remain backwards compatible with Matrix < 1.6-0). Calls to this method not setting sqrt may warn about the pending change. The warnings can be disabled with options(Matrix.warnSqrtDefault = 0).

diag

signature(x = "CHMfactor"): returns a numeric vector of length nn containing the diagonal elements of DD, which (if they are all non-negative) are the squared diagonal elements of LL.

expand

signature(x = "CHMfactor"): see expand-methods.

expand1

signature(x = "CHMsimpl"): see expand1-methods.

expand1

signature(x = "CHMsuper"): see expand1-methods.

expand2

signature(x = "CHMsimpl"): see expand2-methods.

expand2

signature(x = "CHMsuper"): see expand2-methods.

image

signature(x = "CHMfactor"): see image-methods.

nnzero

signature(x = "CHMfactor"): see nnzero-methods.

solve

signature(a = "CHMfactor", b = .): see solve-methods.

update

signature(object = "CHMfactor"): returns a copy of object with the same nonzero pattern but with numeric entries updated according to additional arguments parent and mult, where parent is (coercible to) a dsCMatrix or a dgCMatrix and mult is a numeric vector of positive length.
The numeric entries are updated with those of the Cholesky factor of F(parent) + mult[1] * I, i.e., F(parent) plus mult[1] times the identity matrix, where F = identity for symmetric parent and F = tcrossprod for other parent. The nonzero pattern of F(parent) must match that of S if object = Cholesky(S, ...).

updown

signature(update = ., C = ., object = "CHMfactor"): see updown-methods.

Dense Cholesky Factorizations

Description

Classes Cholesky and pCholesky represent dense, pivoted Cholesky factorizations of n×nn \times n real, symmetric, positive semidefinite matrices AA, having the general form

P1AP1=L1DL1=LLP_{1} A P_{1}' = L_{1} D L_{1}' = L L'

or (equivalently)

A=P1L1DL1P1=P1LLP1A = P_{1}' L_{1} D L_{1}' P_{1} = P_{1}' L L' P_{1}

where P1P_{1} is a permutation matrix, L1L_{1} is a unit lower triangular matrix, DD is a non-negative diagonal matrix, and L=L1DL = L_{1} \sqrt{D}.

These classes store the entries of the Cholesky factor LL or its transpose LL' in a dense format as a vector of length nnnn (Cholesky) or n(n+1)/2n(n+1)/2 (pCholesky), the latter giving the “packed” representation.

Slots

Dim, Dimnames

inherited from virtual class MatrixFactorization.

uplo

a string, either "U" or "L", indicating which triangle (upper or lower) of the factorized symmetric matrix was used to compute the factorization and in turn whether x stores LL' or LL.

x

a numeric vector of length n*n (Cholesky) or n*(n+1)/2 (pCholesky), where n=Dim[1], listing the entries of the Cholesky factor LL or its transpose LL' in column-major order.

perm

a 1-based integer vector of length Dim[1] specifying the permutation applied to the rows and columns of the factorized matrix. perm of length 0 is valid and equivalent to the identity permutation, implying no pivoting.

Extends

Class CholeskyFactorization, directly. Class MatrixFactorization, by class CholeskyFactorization, distance 2.

Instantiation

Objects can be generated directly by calls of the form new("Cholesky", ...) or new("pCholesky", ...), but they are more typically obtained as the value of Cholesky(x) for x inheriting from dsyMatrix or dspMatrix (often the subclasses of those reserved for positive semidefinite matrices, namely dpoMatrix and dppMatrix).

Methods

coerce

signature(from = "Cholesky", to = "dtrMatrix"): returns a dtrMatrix representing the Cholesky factor LL or its transpose LL'; see ‘Note’.

coerce

signature(from = "pCholesky", to = "dtpMatrix"): returns a dtpMatrix representing the Cholesky factor LL or its transpose LL'; see ‘Note’.

determinant

signature(from = "p?Cholesky", logarithm = "logical"): computes the determinant of the factorized matrix AA or its logarithm.

diag

signature(x = "p?Cholesky"): returns a numeric vector of length nn containing the diagonal elements of DD, which are the squared diagonal elements of LL.

Matrix 1.6-0 removed these extensions so that methods would no longer be inherited from dtrMatrix and dtpMatrix.

Methods for Cholesky Factorization

Description

Computes the pivoted Cholesky factorization of an n×nn \times n real, symmetric matrix AA, which has the general form

P1AP1=L1DL1=Djj0LLP_1 A P_1' = L_1 D L_1' \overset{D_{jj} \ge 0}{=} L L'

or (equivalently)

A=P1L1DL1P1=Djj0P1LLP1A = P_1' L_1 D L_1' P_1 \overset{D_{jj} \ge 0}{=} P_1' L L' P_1

where P1P_1 is a permutation matrix, L1L_1 is a unit lower triangular matrix, DD is a diagonal matrix, and L=L1DL = L_1 \sqrt{D}. The second equalities hold only for positive semidefinite AA, for which the diagonal entries of DD are non-negative and D\sqrt{D} is well-defined.

Methods for denseMatrix are built on LAPACK routines dpstrf, dpotrf, and dpptrf. The latter two do not permute rows or columns, so that P1P_1 is an identity matrix.

Methods for sparseMatrix are built on CHOLMOD routines cholmod_analyze and cholmod_factorize_p.

Usage

Cholesky(A, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'dsyMatrix'
Cholesky(A, perm = TRUE, tol = -1, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'dspMatrix'
Cholesky(A, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'dsCMatrix'
Cholesky(A, perm = TRUE, LDL = !super, super = FALSE,
    Imult = 0, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'ddiMatrix'
Cholesky(A, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'generalMatrix'
Cholesky(A, uplo = "U", ...)
## S4 method for signature 'triangularMatrix'
Cholesky(A, uplo = "U", ...)
## S4 method for signature 'matrix'
Cholesky(A, uplo = "U", ...)

Arguments

A

a finite, symmetric matrix or Matrix to be factorized. If A is square but not symmetric, then it will be treated as symmetric; see uplo. Methods for dense A require positive definiteness when perm = FALSE and positive semidefiniteness when perm = TRUE. Methods for sparse A require positive definiteness when LDL = TRUE and nonzero leading principal minors (after pivoting) when LDL = FALSE. Methods for sparse, diagonal A are an exception, requiring positive semidefiniteness unconditionally.

perm

a logical indicating if the rows and columns of AA should be pivoted. Methods for sparse A employ the approximate minimum degree (AMD) algorithm in order to reduce fill-in, i.e., without regard for numerical stability. Pivoting for sparsity may introduce nonpositive leading principal minors, causing the factorization to fail, in which case it may be necessary to set perm = FALSE.

tol

a finite numeric tolerance, used only if perm = TRUE. The factorization algorithm stops if the pivot is less than or equal to tol. Negative tol is equivalent to nrow(A) * .Machine$double.eps * max(diag(A)).

LDL

a logical indicating if the simplicial factorization should be computed as P1L1DL1P1P_1' L_1 D L_1' P_1, such that the result stores the lower triangular entries of L1I+DL_1-I+D. The alternative is P1LLP1P_1' L L' P_1, such that the result stores the lower triangular entries of L=L1DL = L_1 \sqrt{D}. This argument is ignored if super = TRUE (or if super = NA and the supernodal algorithm is chosen), as the supernodal code does not yet support the LDL = TRUE variant.

super

a logical indicating if the factorization should use the supernodal algorithm. The alternative is the simplicial algorithm. Setting super = NA leaves the choice to a CHOLMOD-internal heuristic.

Imult

a finite number. The matrix that is factorized is A + Imult * diag(nrow(A)), i.e., A plus Imult times the identity matrix. This argument is useful for symmetric, indefinite A, as Imult > max(rowSums(abs(A)) - diag(abs(A))) ensures that A + Imult * diag(nrow(A)) is diagonally dominant. (Symmetric, diagonally dominant matrices are positive definite.)

uplo

a string, either "U" or "L", indicating which triangle of A should be used to compute the factorization. The default is "U", even for lower triangular A, to be consistent with chol from base.

...

further arguments passed to or from methods.

Details

Note that the result of a call to Cholesky inherits from CholeskyFactorization but not Matrix. Users who just want a matrix should consider using chol, whose methods are simple wrappers around Cholesky returning just the upper triangular Cholesky factor LL', typically as a triangularMatrix. However, a more principled approach would be to construct factors as needed from the CholeskyFactorization object, e.g., with expand1(x, "L"), if x is the object.

The behaviour of Cholesky(A, perm = TRUE) for dense A is somewhat exceptional, in that it expects without checking that A is positive semidefinite. By construction, if AA is positive semidefinite and the exact algorithm encounters a zero pivot, then the unfactorized trailing submatrix is the zero matrix, and there is nothing left to do. Hence when the finite precision algorithm encounters a pivot less than tol, it signals a warning instead of an error and zeros the trailing submatrix in order to guarantee that PLLPP' L L' P is positive semidefinite even if AA is not. It follows that one way to test for positive semidefiniteness of AA in the event of a warning is to analyze the error

APLLPA.\frac{\lVert A - P' L L' P \rVert}{\lVert A \rVert}\,.

See the examples and LAPACK Working Note (“LAWN”) 161 for details.

Value

An object representing the factorization, inheriting from virtual class CholeskyFactorization. For a traditional matrix A, the specific class is Cholesky. For A inheriting from unpackedMatrix, packedMatrix, and sparseMatrix, the specific class is Cholesky, pCholesky, and dCHMsimpl or dCHMsuper, respectively.

Class "CsparseMatrix" of Sparse Matrices in Column-compressed Form

Description

The "CsparseMatrix" class is the virtual class of all sparse matrices coded in sorted compressed column-oriented form. Since it is a virtual class, no objects may be created from it. See showClass("CsparseMatrix") for its subclasses.

Slots

i:

Object of class "integer" of length nnzero (number of non-zero elements). These are the 0-based row numbers for each non-zero element in the matrix, i.e., i must be in 0:(nrow(.)-1).

p:

integer vector for providing pointers, one for each column, to the initial (zero-based) index of elements in the column. .@p is of length ncol(.) + 1, with p[1] == 0 and p[length(p)] == nnzero, such that in fact, diff(.@p) are the number of non-zero elements for each column.

In other words, m@p[1:ncol(m)] contains the indices of those elements in m@x that are the first elements in the respective column of m.

Dim, Dimnames:

inherited from the superclass, see the sparseMatrix class.

Extends

Class "sparseMatrix", directly. Class "Matrix", by class "sparseMatrix".

Note

All classes extending CsparseMatrix have a common validity (see validObject) check function. That function additionally checks the i slot for each column to contain increasing row numbers.
In earlier versions of Matrix (<= 0.999375-16), validObject automatically re-sorted the entries when necessary, and hence new() calls with somewhat permuted i and x slots worked, as new(...) (with slot arguments) automatically checks the validity.

Now, you have to use sparseMatrix to achieve the same functionality or know how to use .validateCsparse() to do so.

Construct a Diagonal Matrix

Description

Construct a formally diagonal Matrix, i.e., an object inheriting from virtual class diagonalMatrix (or, if desired, a mathematically diagonal CsparseMatrix).

Usage

Diagonal(n, x = NULL, names = FALSE)

.sparseDiagonal(n, x = NULL, uplo = "U", shape = "t", unitri = TRUE, kind, cols)
    .trDiagonal(n, x = NULL, uplo = "U", unitri = TRUE, kind)
   .symDiagonal(n, x = NULL, uplo = "U", kind)

Arguments

n

integer indicating the dimension of the (square) matrix. If missing, then length(x) is used.

x

numeric or logical vector listing values for the diagonal entries, to be recycled as necessary. If NULL (the default), then the result is a unit diagonal matrix. .sparseDiagonal() and friends ignore non-NULL x when kind = "n".

names

either logical TRUE or FALSE or then a character vector of length n. If true and names(x) is not NULL, use that as both row and column names for the resulting matrix. When a character vector, use it for both dimnames.

uplo

one of c("U","L"), specifying the uplo slot of the result if the result is formally triangular of symmetric.

shape

one of c("t","s","g"), indicating if the result should be formally triangular, symmetric, or “general”. The result will inherit from virtual class triangularMatrix, symmetricMatrix, or generalMatrix, respectively.

unitri

logical indicating if a formally triangular result with ones on the diagonal should be formally unit triangular, i.e., with diag slot equal to "U" rather than "N".

kind

one of c("d","l","n"), indicating the “mode” of the result: numeric, logical, or pattern. The result will inherit from virtual class dsparseMatrix, lsparseMatrix, or nsparseMatrix, respectively. Values other than "n" are ignored when x is non-NULL; in that case the mode is determined by typeof(x).

cols

optional integer vector with values in 0:(n-1), indexing columns of the specified diagonal matrix. If specified, then the result is (mathematically) D[, cols+1] rather than D, where D = Diagonal(n, x), and it is always “general” (i.e., shape is ignored).

Value

Diagonal() returns an object inheriting from virtual class diagonalMatrix.

.sparseDiagonal() returns a CsparseMatrix representation of Diagonal(n, x) or, if cols is given, of Diagonal(n, x)[, cols+1]. The precise class of the result depends on shape and kind.

.trDiagonal() and .symDiagonal() are simple wrappers, for .sparseDiagonal(shape = "t") and .sparseDiagonal(shape = "s"), respectively.

.sparseDiagonal() exists primarily to leverage efficient C-level methods available for CsparseMatrix.

M1 <- Matrix(0+0:5, 2,3)
(M <- kronecker(Diagonal(3), M1))

(S <- crossprod(Matrix(rbinom(60, size=1, prob=0.1), 10,6)))
(SI <- S + 10*.symDiagonal(6)) # sparse symmetric still
stopifnot(is(SI, "dsCMatrix"))
(I4 <- .sparseDiagonal(4, shape="t"))# now (2012-10) unitriangular
stopifnot(I4@diag == "U", all(I4 == diag(4)))

Generate a Hilbert matrix

Description

Generate the n by n symmetric Hilbert matrix. Because these matrices are ill-conditioned for moderate to large n, they are often used for testing numerical linear algebra code.

Usage

Hilbert(n)

Arguments

n

a non-negative integer.

Value

the n by n symmetric Hilbert matrix as a "dpoMatrix" object.

Koenker-Ng Example Sparse Model Matrix and Response Vector

Description

Khatri-Rao Matrix Product

Description

Computes Khatri-Rao products for any kind of matrices.

The Khatri-Rao product is a column-wise Kronecker product. Originally introduced by Khatri and Rao (1968), it has many different applications, see Liu and Trenkler (2008) for a survey. Notably, it is used in higher-dimensional tensor decompositions, see Bader and Kolda (2008).

Usage

KhatriRao(X, Y = X, FUN = "*", sparseY = TRUE, make.dimnames = FALSE)

Arguments

X, Y

matrices of with the same number of columns.

FUN

the (name of the) function to be used for the column-wise Kronecker products, see kronecker, defaulting to the usual multiplication.

sparseY

logical specifying if Y should be coerced and treated as sparseMatrix. Set this to FALSE, e.g., to distinguish structural zeros from zero entries.

make.dimnames

logical indicating if the result should inherit dimnames from X and Y in a simple way.

Value

a "CsparseMatrix", say R, the Khatri-Rao product of X (n×kn \times k) and Y (m×km \times k), is of dimension (nm)×k(n\cdot m) \times k, where the j-th column, R[,j] is the kronecker product kronecker(X[,j], Y[,j]).

Note

The current implementation is efficient for large sparse matrices.

Construct a Classed Matrix

Description

Construct a Matrix of a class that inherits from Matrix.

Usage

Matrix(data=NA, nrow=1, ncol=1, byrow=FALSE, dimnames=NULL,
       sparse = NULL, doDiag = TRUE, forceCheck = FALSE)

Arguments

data

an optional numeric data vector or matrix.

nrow

when data is not a matrix, the desired number of rows

ncol

when data is not a matrix, the desired number of columns

byrow

logical. If FALSE (the default) the matrix is filled by columns, otherwise the matrix is filled by rows.

dimnames

a dimnames attribute for the matrix: a list of two character components. They are set if not NULL (as per default).

sparse

logical or NULL, specifying if the result should be sparse or not. By default, it is made sparse when more than half of the entries are 0.

doDiag

logical indicating if a diagonalMatrix object should be returned when the resulting matrix is diagonal (mathematically). As class diagonalMatrix extends sparseMatrix, this is a natural default for all values of sparse.

Otherwise, if doDiag is false, a dense or sparse (depending on sparse) symmetric matrix will be returned.

forceCheck

logical indicating if the checks for structure should even happen when data is already a "Matrix" object.

Details

If either of nrow or ncol is not given, an attempt is made to infer it from the length of data and the other parameter. Further, Matrix() makes efforts to keep logical matrices logical, i.e., inheriting from class lMatrix, and to determine specially structured matrices such as symmetric, triangular or diagonal ones. Note that a symmetric matrix also needs symmetric dimnames, e.g., by specifying dimnames = list(NULL,NULL), see the examples.

Most of the time, the function works via a traditional (full) matrix. However, Matrix(0, nrow,ncol) directly constructs an “empty” sparseMatrix, as does Matrix(FALSE, *).

Although it is sometime possible to mix unclassed matrices (created with matrix) with ones of class "Matrix", it is much safer to always use carefully constructed ones of class "Matrix".

Value

Returns matrix of a class that inherits from "Matrix". Only if data is not a matrix and does not already inherit from class Matrix are the arguments nrow, ncol and byrow made use of.

See Also

The classes Matrix, symmetricMatrix, triangularMatrix, and diagonalMatrix; further, matrix.

Special matrices can be constructed, e.g., via sparseMatrix (sparse), bdiag (block-diagonal), bandSparse (banded sparse), or Diagonal.

Examples

Matrix(0, 3, 2)             # 3 by 2 matrix of zeros -> sparse
Matrix(0, 3, 2, sparse=FALSE)# -> 'dense'

## 4 cases - 3 different results :
Matrix(0, 2, 2)              # diagonal !
Matrix(0, 2, 2, sparse=FALSE)# (ditto)
Matrix(0, 2, 2,               doDiag=FALSE)# -> sparse symm. "dsCMatrix"
Matrix(0, 2, 2, sparse=FALSE, doDiag=FALSE)# -> dense  symm. "dsyMatrix"

Matrix(1:6, 3, 2)           # a 3 by 2 matrix (+ integer warning)
Matrix(1:6 + 1, nrow=3)

## logical ones:
Matrix(diag(4) >  0) # -> "ldiMatrix" with diag = "U"
Matrix(diag(4) >  0, sparse=TRUE) #  (ditto)
Matrix(diag(4) >= 0) # -> "lsyMatrix" (of all 'TRUE')
## triangular
l3 <- upper.tri(matrix(,3,3))
(M <- Matrix(l3))   # -> "ltCMatrix"
Matrix(! l3)        # -> "ltrMatrix"
as(l3, "CsparseMatrix")# "lgCMatrix"

Matrix(1:9, nrow=3,
       dimnames = list(c("a", "b", "c"), c("A", "B", "C")))
(I3 <- Matrix(diag(3)))# identity, i.e., unit "diagonalMatrix"
str(I3) # note  'diag = "U"' and the empty 'x' slot

(A <- cbind(a=c(2,1), b=1:2))# symmetric *apart* from dimnames
Matrix(A)                    # hence 'dgeMatrix'
(As <- Matrix(A, dimnames = list(NULL,NULL)))# -> symmetric
forceSymmetric(A) # also symmetric, w/ symm. dimnames
stopifnot(is(As, "symmetricMatrix"),
          is(Matrix(0, 3,3), "sparseMatrix"),
          is(Matrix(FALSE, 1,1), "sparseMatrix"))

Virtual Class "Matrix" of Matrices

Description

The Matrix class is a class contained by all actual classes in the Matrix package. It is a “virtual” class.

Slots

Dim

an integer vector of length 2 giving the dimensions of the matrix.

Dimnames

a list of length 2. Each element must be NULL or a character vector of length equal to the corresponding element of Dim.

Methods

determinant

signature(x = "Matrix", logarithm = "missing"): and

determinant

signature(x = "Matrix", logarithm = "logical"): compute the (log\log) determinant of x. The method chosen depends on the actual Matrix class of x. Note that det also works for all our matrices, calling the appropriate determinant() method. The Matrix::det is an exact copy of base::det, but in the correct namespace, and hence calling the S4-aware version of determinant().).

diff

signature(x = "Matrix"): As diff() for traditional matrices, i.e., applying diff() to each column.

dim

signature(x = "Matrix"): extract matrix dimensions dim.

dim<-

signature(x = "Matrix", value = "ANY"): where value is integer of length 2. Allows to reshape Matrix objects, but only when prod(value) == prod(dim(x)).

dimnames

signature(x = "Matrix"): extract dimnames.

dimnames<-

signature(x = "Matrix", value = "list"): set the dimnames to a list of length 2, see dimnames<-.

length

signature(x = "Matrix"): simply defined as prod(dim(x)) (and hence of mode "double").

show

signature(object = "Matrix"): show method for printing. For printing sparse matrices, see printSpMatrix.

zapsmall

signature(x = "Matrix"): typically used for "dMatrix": round() matrix entries such that (relatively) very small entries become zero exactly.

image

signature(object = "Matrix"): draws an image of the matrix entries, using levelplot() from package lattice.

head

signature(object = "Matrix"): return only the “head”, i.e., the first few rows.

tail

signature(object = "Matrix"): return only the “tail”, i.e., the last few rows of the respective matrix.


as.matrix, as.array

signature(x = "Matrix"): the same as as(x, "matrix"); see also the note below.

as.vector

signature(x = "Matrix", mode = "missing"): as.vector(m) should be identical to as.vector(as(m, "matrix")), implemented more efficiently for some subclasses.

as(x, "vector"), as(x, "numeric")

etc, similarly.

coerce

signature(from = "ANY", to = "Matrix"): This relies on a correct as.matrix() method for from.

There are many more methods that (conceptually should) work for all "Matrix" objects, e.g., colSums, rowMeans. Even base functions may work automagically (if they first call as.matrix() on their principal argument), e.g., apply, eigen, svd or kappa all do work via coercion to a “traditional” (dense) matrix.

Note

Loading the Matrix namespace “overloads” as.matrix and as.array in the base namespace by the equivalent of function(x) as(x, "matrix"). Consequently, as.matrix(m) or as.array(m) will properly work when m inherits from the "Matrix" class — also for functions in package base and other packages. E.g., apply or outer can therefore be applied to "Matrix" matrices.

Virtual Class "MatrixFactorization" of Matrix Factorizations

Description

MatrixFactorization is the virtual class of factorizations of m×nm \times n matrices AA, having the general form

P1AP2=A1ApP_{1} A P_{2} = A_{1} \cdots A_{p}

or (equivalently)

A=P1A1ApP2A = P_{1}' A_{1} \cdots A_{p} P_{2}'

where P1P_{1} and P2P_{2} are permutation matrices. Factorizations requiring symmetric AA have the constraint P2=P1P_{2} = P_{1}', and factorizations without row or column pivoting have the constraints P1=ImP_{1} = I_{m} and P2=InP_{2} = I_{n}, where ImI_{m} and InI_{n} are the m×mm \times m and n×nn \times n identity matrices.

CholeskyFactorization, BunchKaufmanFactorization, SchurFactorization, LU, and QR are the virtual subclasses of MatrixFactorization containing all Cholesky, Bunch-Kaufman, Schur, LU, and QR factorizations, respectively.

Slots

Dim

an integer vector of length 2 giving the dimensions of the factorized matrix.

Dimnames

a list of length 2 preserving the dimnames of the factorized matrix. Each element must be NULL or a character vector of length equal to the corresponding element of Dim.

Methods

determinant

signature(x = "MatrixFactorization", logarithm = "missing"): sets logarithm = TRUE and recalls the generic function.

dim

signature(x = "MatrixFactorization"): returns x@Dim.

dimnames

signature(x = "MatrixFactorization"): returns x@Dimnames.

dimnames<-

signature(x = "MatrixFactorization", value = "NULL"): returns x with x@Dimnames set to list(NULL, NULL).

dimnames<-

signature(x = "MatrixFactorization", value = "list"): returns x with x@Dimnames set to value.

length

signature(x = "MatrixFactorization"): returns prod(x@Dim).

show

signature(object = "MatrixFactorization"): prints the internal representation of the factorization using str.

solve

signature(a = "MatrixFactorization", b = .): see solve-methods.

unname

signature(obj = "MatrixFactorization"): returns obj with obj@Dimnames set to list(NULL, NULL).

Class "RsparseMatrix" of Sparse Matrices in Row-compressed Form

Description

The "RsparseMatrix" class is the virtual class of all sparse matrices coded in sorted compressed row-oriented form. Since it is a virtual class, no objects may be created from it. See showClass("RsparseMatrix") for its subclasses.

Slots

j:

Object of class "integer" of length nnzero (number of non-zero elements). These are the row numbers for each non-zero element in the matrix.

p:

Object of class "integer" of pointers, one for each row, to the initial (zero-based) index of elements in the row.

Dim, Dimnames:

inherited from the superclass, see sparseMatrix.

Extends

Class "sparseMatrix", directly. Class "Matrix", by class "sparseMatrix".

Methods

Originally, few methods were defined on purpose, as we rather use the CsparseMatrix in Matrix. Then, more methods were added but beware that these typically do not return "RsparseMatrix" results, but rather Csparse* or Tsparse* ones; e.g., R[i, j] <- v for an "RsparseMatrix" R works, but after the assignment, R is a (triplet) "TsparseMatrix".

t

signature(x = "RsparseMatrix"): ...

coerce

signature(from = "RsparseMatrix", to = "CsparseMatrix"): ...

Schur Factorizations

Description

Schur is the class of Schur factorizations of n×nn \times n real matrices AA, having the general form

A=QTQA = Q T Q'

where QQ is an orthogonal matrix and TT is a block upper triangular matrix with 1×11 \times 1 or 2×22 \times 2 diagonal blocks specifying the real and complex conjugate eigenvalues of AA. The column vectors of QQ are the Schur vectors of AA, and TT is the Schur form of AA.

The Schur factorization generalizes the spectral decomposition of normal matrices AA, whose Schur form is block diagonal, to arbitrary square matrices.

Details

The matrix AA and its Schur form TT are similar and thus have the same spectrum. The eigenvalues are computed trivially as the eigenvalues of the diagonal blocks of TT.

Slots

Dim, Dimnames

inherited from virtual class MatrixFactorization.

Q

an orthogonal matrix, inheriting from virtual class Matrix.

T

a block upper triangular matrix, inheriting from virtual class Matrix. The diagonal blocks have dimensions 1-by-1 or 2-by-2.

EValues

a numeric or complex vector containing the eigenvalues of the diagonal blocks of T, which are the eigenvalues of T and consequently of the factorized matrix.

Extends

Class SchurFactorization, directly. Class MatrixFactorization, by class SchurFactorization, distance 2.

Instantiation

Objects can be generated directly by calls of the form new("Schur", ...), but they are more typically obtained as the value of Schur(x) for x inheriting from Matrix (often dgeMatrix).

Methods

determinant

signature(from = "Schur", logarithm = "logical"): computes the determinant of the factorized matrix AA or its logarithm.

expand1

signature(x = "Schur"): see expand1-methods.

expand2

signature(x = "Schur"): see expand2-methods.

solve

signature(a = "Schur", b = .): see solve-methods.

Methods for Schur Factorization

Description

Computes the Schur factorization of an n×nn \times n real matrix AA, which has the general form

A=QTQA = Q T Q'

where QQ is an orthogonal matrix and TT is a block upper triangular matrix with 1×11 \times 1 and 2×22 \times 2 diagonal blocks specifying the real and complex conjugate eigenvalues of AA. The column vectors of QQ are the Schur vectors of AA, and TT is the Schur form of AA.

Methods are built on LAPACK routine dgees.

Usage

Schur(x, vectors = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

x

a finite square matrix or Matrix to be factorized.

vectors

a logical. If TRUE (the default), then Schur vectors are computed in addition to the Schur form.

...

further arguments passed to or from methods.

Value

An object representing the factorization, inheriting from virtual class SchurFactorization if vectors = TRUE. Currently, the specific class is always Schur in that case. An exception is if x is a traditional matrix, in which case the result is a named list containing Q, T, and EValues slots of the Schur object.

If vectors = FALSE, then the result is the same named list but without Q.

Class "TsparseMatrix" of Sparse Matrices in Triplet Form

Description

The "TsparseMatrix" class is the virtual class of all sparse matrices coded in triplet form. Since it is a virtual class, no objects may be created from it. See showClass("TsparseMatrix") for its subclasses.

Slots

Dim, Dimnames:

from the "Matrix" class,

i:

Object of class "integer" - the row indices of non-zero entries in 0-base, i.e., must be in 0:(nrow(.)-1).

j:

Object of class "integer" - the column indices of non-zero entries. Must be the same length as slot i and 0-based as well, i.e., in 0:(ncol(.)-1). For numeric Tsparse matrices, (i,j) pairs can occur more than once, see dgTMatrix.

Extends

Class "sparseMatrix", directly. Class "Matrix", by class "sparseMatrix".

Methods

Extraction ("[") methods, see [-methods.

Note

Most operations with sparse matrices are performed using the compressed, column-oriented or CsparseMatrix representation. The triplet representation is convenient for creating a sparse matrix or for reading and writing such matrices. Once it is created, however, the matrix is generally coerced to a CsparseMatrix for further operations.

Note that all new(.), spMatrix and sparseMatrix(*, repr="T") constructors for "TsparseMatrix" classes implicitly add (i.e., “sum up”) xkx_k's that belong to identical (ik,jk)(i_k, j_k) pairs, see, the example below, or also "dgTMatrix".

For convenience, methods for some operations such as %*% and crossprod are defined for TsparseMatrix objects. These methods simply coerce the TsparseMatrix object to a CsparseMatrix object then perform the operation.

its superclass, sparseMatrix, and the dgTMatrix class, for the links to other classes.

Contiguity Matrix of U.S. Counties

Description

This matrix gives the contiguities of 3111 U.S. counties, using the queen criterion of at least one shared vertex or edge.

Usage

data(USCounties)

Format

A 3111×31113111 \times 3111 sparse, symmetric matrix of class dsCMatrix, with 9101 nonzero entries.

Source

GAL lattice file ‘usc_q.GAL’ (retrieved in 2008 from ‘http://sal.uiuc.edu/weights/zips/usc.zip’ with permission from Luc Anselin for use and distribution) was read into R using function read.gal from package spdep.

Neighbour lists were augmented with row-standardized (and then symmetrized) spatial weights, using functions nb2listw and similar.listw from packages spdep and spatialreg. The resulting listw object was coerced to class dsTMatrix using as_dsTMatrix_listw from spatialreg, and subsequently to class dsCMatrix.

system.time(MJ1 <- sapply(rho, function(mult)
    determinant(update(C1, USCounties, mult), sqrt = FALSE)$modulus))
stopifnot(all.equal(MJ0, MJ1))

C2 <- Cholesky(USCounties, super = TRUE, Imult = 2)
system.time(MJ2 <- sapply(rho, function(mult)
    determinant(update(C2, USCounties, mult), sqrt = FALSE)$modulus))

Class "abIndex" of Abstract Index Vectors

Description

The "abIndex" class, short for “Abstract Index Vector”, is used for dealing with large index vectors more efficiently, than using integer (or numeric) vectors of the kind 2:1000000 or c(0:1e5, 1000:1e6).

Note that the current implementation details are subject to change, and if you consider working with these classes, please contact the package maintainers (packageDescription("Matrix")$Maintainer).

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("abIndex", ...), but more easily and typically either by as(x, "abIndex") where x is an integer (valued) vector, or directly by abIseq() and combination c(...) of such.

Slots

kind:

a character string, one of ("int32", "double", "rleDiff"), denoting the internal structure of the abIndex object.

x:

Object of class "numLike"; is used (i.e., not of length 0) only iff the object is not compressed, i.e., currently exactly when kind != "rleDiff".

rleD:

object of class "rleDiff", used for compression via rle.

Note

This is currently experimental and not yet used for our own code. Please contact us (packageDescription("Matrix")$Maintainer), if you plan to make use of this class.

Partly builds on ideas and code from Jens Oehlschlaegel, as implemented (around 2008, in the GPL'ed part of) package ff.

Sequence Generation of "abIndex", Abstract Index Vectors

Description

Generation of abstract index vectors, i.e., objects of class "abIndex".

abIseq() is designed to work entirely like seq, but producing "abIndex" vectors.
abIseq1() is its basic building block, where abIseq1(n,m) corresponds to n:m.

c(x, ...) will return an "abIndex" vector, when x is one.

Usage

abIseq1(from = 1, to = 1)
abIseq (from = 1, to = 1, by = ((to - from)/(length.out - 1)),
        length.out = NULL, along.with = NULL)

## S3 method for class 'abIndex'
c(...)

Arguments

from, to

the starting and (maximal) end value of the sequence.

by

number: increment of the sequence.

length.out

desired length of the sequence. A non-negative number, which for seq and seq.int will be rounded up if fractional.

along.with

take the length from the length of this argument.

...

in general an arbitrary number of R objects; here, when the first is an "abIndex" vector, these arguments will be concatenated to a new "abIndex" object.

Value

An abstract index vector, i.e., object of class "abIndex".

Examples

stopifnot(identical(-3:20,
                    as(abIseq1(-3,20), "vector")))

Matrix Package Methods for Function all.equal()

Description

Methods for function all.equal() (from R package base) are defined for all Matrix classes.

Methods

target = "Matrix", current = "Matrix"

\

target = "ANY", current = "Matrix"

\

target = "Matrix", current = "ANY"

these three methods are simply using all.equal.numeric directly and work via as.vector().

There are more methods, notably also for "sparseVector"'s, see showMethods("all.equal").

Examples

showMethods("all.equal")

(A <- spMatrix(3,3, i= c(1:3,2:1), j=c(3:1,1:2), x = 1:5))
ex <- expand(lu. <- lu(A))
stopifnot( all.equal(as(A[lu.@p + 1L, lu.@q + 1L], "CsparseMatrix"),
                     lu.@L %*% lu.@U),
           with(ex, all.equal(as(P %*% A %*% t(Q), "CsparseMatrix"),
                              L %*% U)),
           with(ex, all.equal(as(A, "CsparseMatrix"),
                              t(P) %*% L %*% U %*% Q)))

Standardize a Sparse Matrix in Triplet Format

Description

Detect or standardize a TsparseMatrix with unsorted or duplicated (i,j)(i,j) pairs.

Usage

anyDuplicatedT(x, ...)
isUniqueT(x, byrow = FALSE, isT = is(x, "TsparseMatrix"))
asUniqueT(x, byrow = FALSE, isT = is(x, "TsparseMatrix"))
aggregateT(x)

Arguments

x

an R object. anyDuplicatedT and aggregateT require x inheriting from TsparseMatrix. asUniqueT requires x inheriting from Matrix and coerces x to TsparseMatrix if necessary.

...

optional arguments passed to the default method for generic function anyDuplicated.

byrow

a logical indicating if x should be sorted by row then by column.

isT

a logical indicating if x inherits from virtual class TsparseMatrix.

Value

anyDuplicatedT(x) returns the index of the first duplicated (i,j)(i,j) pair in x (0 if there are no duplicated pairs).

isUniqueT(x) returns TRUE if x is a TsparseMatrix with sorted, nonduplicated (i,j)(i,j) pairs and FALSE otherwise.

asUniqueT(x) returns the unique TsparseMatrix representation of x with sorted, nonduplicated (i,j)(i,j) pairs. Values corresponding to identical (i,j)(i,j) pairs are aggregated by addition, where in the logical case “addition” refers to logical OR.

aggregateT(x) aggregates without sorting.

Virtual class TsparseMatrix.

Extract bands of a matrix

Description

Return the matrix obtained by setting to zero elements below a diagonal (triu), above a diagonal (tril), or outside of a general band (band).

Usage

band(x, k1, k2, ...)
triu(x, k = 0L, ...)
tril(x, k = 0L, ...)

Arguments

x

a matrix-like object

k, k1, k2

integers specifying the diagonals that are not set to zero, k1 <= k2. These are interpreted relative to the main diagonal, which is k = 0. Positive and negative values of k indicate diagonals above and below the main diagonal, respectively.

...

optional arguments passed to methods, currently unused by package Matrix.

Details

triu(x, k) is equivalent to band(x, k, dim(x)[2]). Similarly, tril(x, k) is equivalent to band(x, -dim(x)[1], k).

Value

An object of a suitable matrix class, inheriting from triangularMatrix where appropriate. It inherits from sparseMatrix if and only if x does.

Methods

x = "CsparseMatrix"

method for compressed, sparse, column-oriented matrices.

x = "RsparseMatrix"

method for compressed, sparse, row-oriented matrices.

x = "TsparseMatrix"

method for sparse matrices in triplet format.

x = "diagonalMatrix"

method for diagonal matrices.

x = "denseMatrix"

method for dense matrices in packed or unpacked format.

x = "matrix"

method for traditional matrices of implicit class matrix.

See Also

bandSparse for the construction of a banded sparse matrix directly from its non-zero diagonals.

Examples

## A random sparse matrix :
set.seed(7)
m <- matrix(0, 5, 5)
m[sample(length(m), size = 14)] <- rep(1:9, length=14)
(mm <- as(m, "CsparseMatrix"))

tril(mm)        # lower triangle
tril(mm, -1)    # strict lower triangle
triu(mm,  1)    # strict upper triangle
band(mm, -1, 2) # general band
(m5 <- Matrix(rnorm(25), ncol = 5))
tril(m5)        # lower triangle
tril(m5, -1)    # strict lower triangle
triu(m5, 1)     # strict upper triangle
band(m5, -1, 2) # general band
(m65 <- Matrix(rnorm(30), ncol = 5))  # not square
triu(m65)       # result not "dtrMatrix" unless square
(sm5 <- crossprod(m65)) # symmetric
   band(sm5, -1, 1)# "dsyMatrix": symmetric band preserves symmetry property
as(band(sm5, -1, 1), "sparseMatrix")# often preferable
(sm <- round(crossprod(triu(mm/2)))) # sparse symmetric ("dsC*")
band(sm, -1,1) # remains "dsC", *however*
band(sm, -2,1) # -> "dgC"

Construct Sparse Banded Matrix from (Sup-/Super-) Diagonals

Description

Construct a sparse banded matrix by specifying its non-zero sup- and super-diagonals.

Usage

bandSparse(n, m = n, k, diagonals, symmetric = FALSE,
           repr = "C", giveCsparse = (repr == "C"))

Arguments

n, m

the matrix dimension (n,m)=(nrow,ncol)(n,m) = (nrow, ncol).

k

integer vector of “diagonal numbers”, with identical meaning as in band(*, k), i.e., relative to the main diagonal, which is k=0.

diagonals

optional list of sub-/super- diagonals; if missing, the result will be a pattern matrix, i.e., inheriting from class nMatrix.

diagonals can also be n×dn' \times d matrix, where d <- length(k) and n>=min(n,m)n' >= min(n,m). In that case, the sub-/super- diagonals are taken from the columns of diagonals, where only the first several rows will be used (typically) for off-diagonals.

symmetric

logical; if true the result will be symmetric (inheriting from class symmetricMatrix) and only the upper or lower triangle must be specified (via k and diagonals).

repr

character string, one of "C", "T", or "R", specifying the sparse representation to be used for the result, i.e., one from the super classes CsparseMatrix, TsparseMatrix, or RsparseMatrix.

giveCsparse

(deprecated, replaced with repr): logical indicating if the result should be a CsparseMatrix or a TsparseMatrix, where the default was TRUE, and now is determined from repr; very often Csparse matrices are more efficient subsequently, but not always.

Value

a sparse matrix (of class CsparseMatrix) of dimension n×mn \times m with diagonal “bands” as specified.

See Also

band, for extraction of matrix bands; bdiag, diag, sparseMatrix, Matrix.

Examples

diags <- list(1:30, 10*(1:20), 100*(1:20))
s1 <- bandSparse(13, k = -c(0:2, 6), diag = c(diags, diags[2]), symm=TRUE)
s1
s2 <- bandSparse(13, k =  c(0:2, 6), diag = c(diags, diags[2]), symm=TRUE)
stopifnot(identical(s1, t(s2)), is(s1,"dsCMatrix"))

## a pattern Matrix of *full* (sub-)diagonals:
bk <- c(0:4, 7,9)
(s3 <- bandSparse(30, k = bk, symm = TRUE))

## If you want a pattern matrix, but with "sparse"-diagonals,
## you currently need to go via logical sparse:
lLis <- lapply(list(rpois(20, 2), rpois(20, 1), rpois(20, 3))[c(1:3, 2:3, 3:2)],
               as.logical)

Bs <- bandSparse(n, k = bk, diag = bLis, symmetric=TRUE)
B [1:15, 1:30]
Bs[1:15, 1:30]
## can use a list *or* a matrix for specifying the diagonals:
stopifnot(identical(B,  bandSparse(n, k = bk, diag = bMat)),
	  identical(Bs, bandSparse(n, k = bk, diag = bMat, symmetric=TRUE))
          , inherits(B, "dtCMatrix") # triangular!
)

Construct a Block Diagonal Matrix

Description

Build a block diagonal matrix given several building block matrices.

Usage

bdiag(...)
.bdiag(lst)

Arguments

...

individual matrices or a list of matrices.

lst

non-empty list of matrices.

Details

For non-trivial argument list, bdiag() calls .bdiag(). The latter maybe useful to programmers.

Value

A sparse matrix obtained by combining the arguments into a block diagonal matrix.

The value of bdiag() inherits from class CsparseMatrix, whereas .bdiag() returns a TsparseMatrix.

Note

This function has been written and is efficient for the case of relatively few block matrices which are typically sparse themselves.

It is currently inefficient for the case of many small dense block matrices. For the case of many dense k×kk \times k matrices, the bdiag_m() function in the ‘Examples’ is an order of magnitude faster.

Author(s)

Martin Maechler, built on a version posted by Berton Gunter to R-help; earlier versions have been posted by other authors, notably Scott Chasalow to S-news. Doug Bates's faster implementation builds on TsparseMatrix objects.

Boolean Arithmetic Matrix Products: %&% and Methods

Description

For boolean or “pattern” matrices, i.e., R objects of class nMatrix, it is natural to allow matrix products using boolean instead of numerical arithmetic.

In package Matrix, we use the binary operator %&% (aka “infix”) function) for this and provide methods for all our matrices and the traditional R matrices (see matrix).

Value

a pattern matrix, i.e., inheriting from "nMatrix", or an "ldiMatrix" in case of a diagonal matrix.

Methods

We provide methods for both the “traditional” (R base) matrices and numeric vectors and conceptually all matrices and sparseVectors in package Matrix.

signature(x = "ANY", y = "ANY")
signature(x = "ANY", y = "Matrix")
signature(x = "Matrix", y = "ANY")
signature(x = "nMatrix", y = "nMatrix")
signature(x = "nMatrix", y = "nsparseMatrix")
signature(x = "nsparseMatrix", y = "nMatrix")
signature(x = "nsparseMatrix", y = "nsparseMatrix")
signature(x = "sparseVector", y = "sparseVector")

Note

These boolean arithmetic matrix products had been newly introduced for Matrix 1.2.0 (March 2015). Its implementation has still not been tested extensively.

Originally, it was left unspecified how non-structural zeros, i.e., 0's as part of the M@x slot should be treated for numeric ("dMatrix") and logical ("lMatrix") sparse matrices. We now specify that boolean matrix products should behave as if applied to drop0(M), i.e., as if dropping such zeros from the matrix before using it.
Equivalently, for all matrices M, boolean arithmetic should work as if applied to M != 0 (or M != FALSE).

The current implementation ends up coercing both x and y to (virtual) class nsparseMatrix which may be quite inefficient for dense matrices. A future implementation may well return a matrix with different class, but the “same” content, i.e., the same matrix entries mijm_ij.

See Also

%*%, crossprod(), or tcrossprod(), for (regular) matrix product methods.

Examples

set.seed(7)
L <- Matrix(rnorm(20) > 1,    4,5)
(N <- as(L, "nMatrix"))
L. <- L; L.[1:2,1] <- TRUE; L.@x[1:2] <- FALSE; L. # has "zeros" to drop0()
D <- Matrix(round(rnorm(30)), 5,6) # -> values in -1:1 (for this seed)
L %&% D
stopifnot(identical(L %&% D, N %&% D),
          all(L %&% D == as((L %*% abs(D)) > 0, "sparseMatrix")))

## cross products , possibly with  boolArith = TRUE :
crossprod(N)     # -> sparse patter'n' (TRUE/FALSE : boolean arithmetic)
crossprod(N  +0) # -> numeric Matrix (with same "pattern")
stopifnot(all(crossprod(N) == t(N) %&% N),
          identical(crossprod(N), crossprod(N +0, boolArith=TRUE)),
          identical(crossprod(L), crossprod(N   , boolArith=FALSE)))
crossprod(D, boolArith =  TRUE) # pattern: "nsCMatrix"
crossprod(L, boolArith =  TRUE) #  ditto
crossprod(L, boolArith = FALSE) # numeric: "dsCMatrix"

'cbind()' and 'rbind()' recursively built on cbind2/rbind2

Description

The base functions cbind and rbind are defined for an arbitrary number of arguments and hence have the first formal argument .... Now, when S4 objects are found among the arguments, base cbind() and rbind() internally “dispatch” recursively, calling cbind2 or rbind2 respectively, where these have methods defined and so should dispatch appropriately.

cbind2() and rbind2() are from the methods package, i.e., standard R, and have been provided for binding together two matrices, where in Matrix, we have defined methods for these and the 'Matrix' matrices.

Usage

## cbind(..., deparse.level = 1)
## rbind(..., deparse.level = 1)

## S4 method for signature 'Matrix,Matrix'
cbind2(x, y, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'Matrix,Matrix'
rbind2(x, y, ...)

Arguments

...

for [cr]bind, vector- or matrix-like R objects to be bound together; for [cr]bind2, further arguments passed to or from methods; see cbind and cbind2.

deparse.level

integer controlling the construction of labels in the case of non-matrix-like arguments; see cbind.

x, y

vector- or matrix-like R objects to be bound together.

Value

typically a ‘matrix-like’ object of a similar class as the first argument in ....

Note that sometimes by default, the result is a sparseMatrix if one of the arguments is (even in the case where this is not efficient). In other cases, the result is chosen to be sparse when there are more zero entries is than non-zero ones (as the default sparse in Matrix()).

Compute the Cholesky Factor of a Matrix

Description

Computes the upper triangular Cholesky factor of an n×nn \times n real, symmetric, positive semidefinite matrix AA, optionally after pivoting. That is the factor LL' in

P1AP1=LLP_{1} A P_{1}' = L L'

or (equivalently)

A=P1LLP1A = P_{1}' L L' P_{1}

where P1P_{1} is a permutation matrix.

Methods for denseMatrix are built on LAPACK routines dpstrf, dpotrf, and dpptrf, The latter two do not permute rows or columns, so that P1P_{1} is an identity matrix.

Methods for sparseMatrix are built on CHOLMOD routines cholmod_analyze and cholmod_factorize_p.

Usage

chol(x, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'dsyMatrix'
chol(x, pivot = FALSE, tol = -1, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'dspMatrix'
chol(x, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'dsCMatrix'
chol(x, pivot = FALSE, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'ddiMatrix'
chol(x, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'generalMatrix'
chol(x, uplo = "U", ...)
## S4 method for signature 'triangularMatrix'
chol(x, uplo = "U", ...)

Arguments

x

a finite, symmetric, positive semidefinite matrix or Matrix to be factorized. If x is square but not symmetric, then it will be treated as symmetric; see uplo. Methods for dense x require positive definiteness when pivot = FALSE. Methods for sparse (but not diagonal) x require positive definiteness unconditionally.

pivot

a logical indicating if the rows and columns of xx should be pivoted. Methods for sparse x employ the approximate minimum degree (AMD) algorithm in order to reduce fill-in, i.e., without regard for numerical stability.

tol

a finite numeric tolerance, used only if pivot = TRUE. The factorization algorithm stops if the pivot is less than or equal to tol. Negative tol is equivalent to nrow(x) * .Machine$double.eps * max(diag(x)).

uplo

a string, either "U" or "L", indicating which triangle of x should be used to compute the factorization. The default is "U", even for lower triangular x, to be consistent with chol from base.

...

further arguments passed to or from methods.

Details

For x inheriting from diagonalMatrix, the diagonal result is computed directly and without pivoting, i.e., bypassing CHOLMOD.

For all other x, chol(x, pivot = value) calls Cholesky(x, perm = value, ...) under the hood. If you must know the permutation P1P_{1} in addition to the Cholesky factor LL', then call Cholesky directly, as the result of chol(x, pivot = TRUE) specifies LL' but not P1P_{1}.

Value

A matrix, triangularMatrix, or diagonalMatrix representing the upper triangular Cholesky factor LL'. The result is a traditional matrix if x is a traditional matrix, dense if x is dense, and sparse if x is sparse.

Inverse from Cholesky Factor

Description

Given formally upper and lower triangular matrices UU and LL, compute (UU)1(U' U)^{-1} and (LL)1(L L')^{-1}, respectively.

This function can be seen as way to compute the inverse of a symmetric positive definite matrix given its Cholesky factor. Equivalently, it can be seen as a way to compute (XX)1(X' X)^{-1} given the RR part of the QR factorization of XX, if RR is constrained to have positive diagonal entries.

Usage

chol2inv(x, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'dtrMatrix'
chol2inv(x, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'dtCMatrix'
chol2inv(x, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'generalMatrix'
chol2inv(x, uplo = "U", ...)

Arguments

x

a square matrix or Matrix, typically the result of a call to chol. If x is square but not (formally) triangular, then only the upper or lower triangle is considered, depending on optional argument uplo if x is a Matrix.

uplo

a string, either "U" or "L", indicating which triangle of x contains the Cholesky factor. The default is "U", to be consistent with chol2inv from base.

...

further arguments passed to or from methods.

Value

A matrix, symmetricMatrix, or diagonalMatrix representing the inverse of the positive definite matrix whose Cholesky factor is x. The result is a traditional matrix if x is a traditional matrix, dense if x is dense, and sparse if x is sparse.

See Also

The default method from base, chol2inv, called for traditional matrices x.

Generic function chol, for computing the upper triangular Cholesky factor LL' of a symmetric positive semidefinite matrix.

Generic function solve, for solving linear systems and (as a corollary) for computing inverses more generally.

Examples

(A <- Matrix(cbind(c(1, 1, 1), c(1, 2, 4), c(1, 4, 16))))
(R <- chol(A))
(L <- t(R))
(R2i <- chol2inv(R))
(L2i <- chol2inv(R))
stopifnot(exprs = {
    all.equal(R2i, tcrossprod(solve(R)))
    all.equal(L2i,  crossprod(solve(L)))
    all.equal(as(R2i %*% A, "matrix"), diag(3L)) # the identity 
    all.equal(as(L2i %*% A, "matrix"), diag(3L)) # ditto

Conversions "graph" <–> (sparse) Matrix

Description

Since 2005, package Matrix has supported coercions to and from class graph from package graph. Since 2013, this functionality has been exposed via functions T2graph and graph2T, which, unlike methods for as(from, "<Class>"), support optional arguments.

Usage

graph2T(from, use.weights = )
T2graph(from, need.uniq = !isUniqueT(from), edgemode = NULL)

Arguments

from

for graph2T(), an R object of class "graph";
for T2graph(), a sparse matrix inheriting from "TsparseMatrix".

use.weights

logical indicating if weights should be used, i.e., equivalently the result will be numeric, i.e. of class dgTMatrix; otherwise the result will be ngTMatrix or nsTMatrix, the latter if the graph is undirected. The default looks if there are weights in the graph, and if any differ from 1, weights are used.

need.uniq

a logical indicating if from may need to be internally “uniqified”; do not set this and hence rather use the default, unless you know what you are doing!

edgemode

one of NULL, "directed", or "undirected". The default NULL looks if the matrix is symmetric and assumes "undirected" in that case.

Value

For graph2T(), a sparse matrix inheriting from "TsparseMatrix".

For T2graph() an R object of class "graph".

See Also

Package igraph, which provides similar coercions to and from its class igraph via functions graph_from_adjacency_matrix and as_adjacency_matrix.

Examples

if(requireNamespace("graph")) {
  n4 <- LETTERS[1:4]; dns <- list(n4,n4)
  show(a1 <- sparseMatrix(i= c(1:4),   j=c(2:4,1),   x = 2,    dimnames=dns))
  show(g1 <- as(a1, "graph")) # directed
  unlist(graph::edgeWeights(g1)) # all '2'

  show(a2 <- sparseMatrix(i= c(1:4,4), j=c(2:4,1:2), x = TRUE, dimnames=dns))
  show(g2 <- as(a2, "graph")) # directed
  # now if you want it undirected:
  show(g3  <- T2graph(as(a2,"TsparseMatrix"), edgemode="undirected"))
  show(m3 <- as(g3,"Matrix"))
  show( graph2T(g3) ) # a "pattern Matrix" (nsTMatrix)

  a. <- sparseMatrix(i=4:1, j=1:4, dimnames=list(n4, n4), repr="T") # no 'x'
  show(a.) # "ngTMatrix"
  show(g. <- as(a., "graph"))

}

Form Row and Column Sums and Means

Description

Form row and column sums and means for objects, for sparseMatrix the result may optionally be sparse (sparseVector), too. Row or column names are kept respectively as for base matrices and colSums methods, when the result is numeric vector.

Usage

colSums(x, na.rm = FALSE, dims = 1L, ...)
 rowSums(x, na.rm = FALSE, dims = 1L, ...)
colMeans(x, na.rm = FALSE, dims = 1L, ...)
rowMeans(x, na.rm = FALSE, dims = 1L, ...)

## S4 method for signature 'CsparseMatrix'
 colSums(x, na.rm = FALSE, dims = 1L,
         sparseResult = FALSE, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'CsparseMatrix'
 rowSums(x, na.rm = FALSE, dims = 1L,
         sparseResult = FALSE, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'CsparseMatrix'
colMeans(x, na.rm = FALSE, dims = 1L,
         sparseResult = FALSE, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'CsparseMatrix'
rowMeans(x, na.rm = FALSE, dims = 1L,
         sparseResult = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

x

a Matrix, i.e., inheriting from Matrix.

na.rm

logical. Should missing values (including NaN) be omitted from the calculations?

dims

completely ignored by the Matrix methods.

...

potentially further arguments, for method <-> generic compatibility.

sparseResult

logical indicating if the result should be sparse, i.e., inheriting from class sparseVector. Only applicable when x is inheriting from a sparseMatrix class.

Value

returns a numeric vector if sparseResult is FALSE as per default. Otherwise, returns a sparseVector.

dimnames(x) are only kept (as names(v)) when the resulting v is numeric, since sparseVectors do not have names.

See Also

colSums and the sparseVector classes.

Examples

(M <- bdiag(Diagonal(2), matrix(1:3, 3,4), diag(3:2))) # 7 x 8
colSums(M)
d <- Diagonal(10, c(0,0,10,0,2,rep(0,5)))
MM <- kronecker(d, M)
dim(MM) # 70 80
length(MM@x) # 160, but many are '0' ; drop those:
MM <- drop0(MM)
length(MM@x) # 32
  cm <- colSums(MM)
(scm <- colSums(MM, sparseResult = TRUE))
stopifnot(is(scm, "sparseVector"),
          identical(cm, as.numeric(scm)))
rowSums (MM, sparseResult = TRUE) # 14 of 70 are not zero
colMeans(MM, sparseResult = TRUE) # 16 of 80 are not zero
## Since we have no 'NA's, these two are equivalent :
stopifnot(identical(rowMeans(MM, sparseResult = TRUE),
                    rowMeans(MM, sparseResult = TRUE, na.rm = TRUE)),
	  rowMeans(Diagonal(16)) == 1/16,
	  colSums(Diagonal(7)) == 1)

## dimnames(x) -->  names( <value> ) :
dimnames(M) <- list(paste0("r", 1:7), paste0("V",1:8))
M
colSums(M)
rowMeans(M)
## Assertions :
stopifnot(exprs = {
    all.equal(colSums(M),
              structure(c(1,1,6,6,6,6,3,2), names = colnames(M)))
    all.equal(rowMeans(M),
              structure(c(1,1,4,8,12,3,2)/8, names = paste0("r", 1:7)))
})

Compute Approximate CONDition number and 1-Norm of (Large) Matrices

Description

“Estimate”, i.e. compute approximately the CONDition number of a (potentially large, often sparse) matrix A. It works by apply a fast randomized approximation of the 1-norm, norm(A,"1"), through onenormest(.).

Usage

condest(A, t = min(n, 5), normA = norm(A, "1"),
        silent = FALSE, quiet = TRUE)

onenormest(A, t = min(n, 5), A.x, At.x, n,
           silent = FALSE, quiet = silent,
           iter.max = 10, eps = 4 * .Machine$double.eps)

Arguments

A

a square matrix, optional for onenormest(), where instead of A, A.x and At.x can be specified, see there.

t

number of columns to use in the iterations.

normA

number; (an estimate of) the 1-norm of A, by default norm(A, "1"); may be replaced by an estimate.

silent

logical indicating if warning and (by default) convergence messages should be displayed.

quiet

logical indicating if convergence messages should be displayed.

A.x, At.x

when A is missing, these two must be given as functions which compute A %% x, or t(A) %% x, respectively.

n

== nrow(A), only needed when A is not specified.

iter.max

maximal number of iterations for the 1-norm estimator.

eps

the relative change that is deemed irrelevant.

Details

condest() calls lu(A), and subsequently onenormest(A.x = , At.x = ) to compute an approximate norm of the inverse of A, A1A^{-1}, in a way which keeps using sparse matrices efficiently when A is sparse.

Note that onenormest() uses random vectors and hence both functions' results are random, i.e., depend on the random seed, see, e.g., set.seed().

Value

Both functions return a list; condest() with components,

est

a number >0> 0, the estimated (1-norm) condition number κ^\hat\kappa; when r:=r :=rcond(A), 1/κ^r1/\hat\kappa \approx r.

v

the maximal AxA x column, scaled to norm(v) = 1. Consequently, norm(Av)=norm(A)/estnorm(A v) = norm(A) / est; when est is large, v is an approximate null vector.

The function onenormest() returns a list with components,

est

a number >0> 0, the estimated norm(A, "1").

v

0-1 integer vector length n, with an 1 at the index j with maximal column A[,j] in AA.

w

numeric vector, the largest AxA x found.

iter

the number of iterations used.

Author(s)

This is based on octave's condest() and onenormest() implementations with original author Jason Riedy, U Berkeley; translation to R and adaption by Martin Maechler.

(Virtual) Class "dMatrix" of "double" Matrices

Description

The dMatrix class is a virtual class contained by all actual classes of numeric matrices in the Matrix package. Similarly, all the actual classes of logical matrices inherit from the lMatrix class.

Slots

Common to all matrix object in the package:

Dim:

Object of class "integer" - the dimensions of the matrix - must be an integer vector with exactly two non-negative values.

Dimnames:

list of length two; each component containing NULL or a character vector length equal the corresponding Dim element.

Methods

There are (relatively simple) group methods (see, e.g., Arith)

Arith

signature(e1 = "dMatrix", e2 = "dMatrix"): ...

Arith

signature(e1 = "dMatrix", e2 = "numeric"): ...

Arith

signature(e1 = "numeric", e2 = "dMatrix"): ...

Math

signature(x = "dMatrix"): ...

Math2

signature(x = "dMatrix", digits = "numeric"): this group contains round() and signif().

Compare

signature(e1 = "numeric", e2 = "dMatrix"): ...

Compare

signature(e1 = "dMatrix", e2 = "numeric"): ...

Compare

signature(e1 = "dMatrix", e2 = "dMatrix"): ...

Summary

signature(x = "dMatrix"): The "Summary" group contains the seven functions max(), min(), range(), prod(), sum(), any(), and all().

The following methods are also defined for all double matrices:

expm

signature(x = "dMatrix"): computes the “Matrix Exponential”, see expm.

The following methods are defined for all logical matrices:

which

signature(x = "lsparseMatrix") and many other subclasses of "lMatrix": as the base function which(x, arr.ind) returns the indices of the TRUE entries in x; if arr.ind is true, as a 2-column matrix of row and column indices. Since Matrix version 1.2-9, if useNames is true, as by default, with dimnames, the same as base::which.

See Also

The nonzero-pattern matrix class nMatrix, which can be used to store non-NA logical matrices even more compactly.

The numeric matrix classes dgeMatrix, dgCMatrix, and Matrix.

drop0(x, tol=1e-10) is sometimes preferable to (and more efficient than) zapsmall(x, digits=10).

Examples

showClass("dMatrix")

 set.seed(101)
 round(Matrix(rnorm(28), 4,7), 2)
 M <- Matrix(rlnorm(56, sd=10), 4,14)
 (M. <- zapsmall(M))
 table(as.logical(M. == 0))

Virtual Class "ddenseMatrix" of Numeric Dense Matrices

Description

This is the virtual class of all dense numeric (i.e., double, hence “ddense”) S4 matrices.

Its most important subclass is the dgeMatrix class.

Extends

Class "dMatrix" directly; class "Matrix", by the above.

Slots

the same slots at its subclass dgeMatrix, see there.

Methods

Most methods are implemented via as(*, "generalMatrix") and are mainly used as “fallbacks” when the subclass doesn't need its own specialized method.

Use showMethods(class = "ddenseMatrix", where = "package:Matrix") for an overview.

See Also

The virtual classes Matrix, dMatrix, and dsparseMatrix.

Examples

showClass("ddenseMatrix")

showMethods(class = "ddenseMatrix", where = "package:Matrix")

Class "ddiMatrix" of Diagonal Numeric Matrices

Description

The class "ddiMatrix" of numerical diagonal matrices. Note that diagonal matrices now extend sparseMatrix, whereas they did extend dense matrices earlier.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("ddiMatrix", ...) but typically rather via Diagonal.

Slots

x:

numeric vector. For an n×nn \times n matrix, the x slot is of length nn or 0, depending on the diag slot:

diag:

"character" string, either "U" or "N" where "U" denotes unit-diagonal, i.e., identity matrices.

Dim,Dimnames:

matrix dimension and dimnames, see the Matrix class description.

Extends

Class "diagonalMatrix", directly. Class "dMatrix", directly. Class "sparseMatrix", indirectly, see showClass("ddiMatrix").

Methods

%*%

signature(x = "ddiMatrix", y = "ddiMatrix"): ...

See Also

Class diagonalMatrix and function Diagonal.

Examples

(d2 <- Diagonal(x = c(10,1)))
str(d2)
## slightly larger in internal size:
str(as(d2, "sparseMatrix"))

M <- Matrix(cbind(1,2:4))
M %*% d2 #> `fast' multiplication

chol(d2) # trivial
stopifnot(is(cd2 <- chol(d2), "ddiMatrix"),
          all.equal(cd2@x, c(sqrt(10),1)))

Dense LU Factorizations

Description

denseLU is the class of dense, row-pivoted LU factorizations of m×nm \times n real matrices AA, having the general form

P1A=LUP_{1} A = L U

or (equivalently)

A=P1LUA = P_{1}' L U

where P1P_{1} is an m×mm \times m permutation matrix, LL is an m×min(m,n)m \times \min(m,n) unit lower trapezoidal matrix, and UU is a min(m,n)×n\min(m,n) \times n upper trapezoidal matrix. If m=nm = n, then the factors LL and UU are triangular.

Slots

Dim, Dimnames

inherited from virtual class MatrixFactorization.

x

a numeric vector of length prod(Dim) storing the triangular LL and UU factors together in a packed format. The details of the representation are specified by the manual for LAPACK routine dgetrf.

perm

an integer vector of length min(Dim) specifying the permutation P1P_{1} as a product of transpositions. The corresponding permutation vector can be obtained as asPerm(perm).

Extends

Class LU, directly. Class MatrixFactorization, by class LU, distance 2.

Instantiation

Objects can be generated directly by calls of the form new("denseLU", ...), but they are more typically obtained as the value of lu(x) for x inheriting from denseMatrix (often dgeMatrix).

Methods

coerce

signature(from = "denseLU", to = "dgeMatrix"): returns a dgeMatrix with the dimensions of the factorized matrix AA, equal to LL below the diagonal and equal to UU on and above the diagonal.

determinant

signature(from = "denseLU", logarithm = "logical"): computes the determinant of the factorized matrix AA or its logarithm.

expand

signature(x = "denseLU"): see expand-methods.

expand1

signature(x = "denseLU"): see expand1-methods.

expand2

signature(x = "denseLU"): see expand2-methods.

solve

signature(a = "denseLU", b = "missing"): see solve-methods.

Virtual Class "denseMatrix" of All Dense Matrices

Description

This is the virtual class of all dense (S4) matrices. It partitions into two subclasses packedMatrix and unpackedMatrix. Alternatively into the (currently) three subclasses ddenseMatrix, ldenseMatrix, and ndenseMatrix.

denseMatrix is (hence) the direct superclass of these (2+3=52+3 = 5) classes.

Extends

class "Matrix" directly.

Slots

exactly those of its superclass "Matrix", i.e., "Dim" and "Dimnames".

Methods

Use showMethods(class = "denseMatrix", where = "package:Matrix") for an overview of methods.

Extraction ("[") methods, see [-methods.

See Also

colSums, kronecker, and other such methods with own help pages.

Its superclass Matrix, and main subclasses, ddenseMatrix and sparseMatrix.

Examples

Compressed, sparse, column-oriented numeric matrices

Description

The dgCMatrix class is a class of sparse numeric matrices in the compressed, sparse, column-oriented format. In this implementation the non-zero elements in the columns are sorted into increasing row order. dgCMatrix is the “standard” class for sparse numeric matrices in the Matrix package.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("dgCMatrix", ...), more typically via as(*, "CsparseMatrix") or similar. Often however, more easily via Matrix(*, sparse = TRUE), or most efficiently via sparseMatrix().

Slots

x:

Object of class "numeric" - the non-zero elements of the matrix.

...

all other slots are inherited from the superclass "CsparseMatrix".

Methods

Matrix products (e.g., crossprod-methods), and (among other)

coerce

signature(from = "matrix", to = "dgCMatrix")

diag

signature(x = "dgCMatrix"): returns the diagonal of x

dim

signature(x = "dgCMatrix"): returns the dimensions of x

image

signature(x = "dgCMatrix"): plots an image of x using the levelplot function

solve

signature(a = "dgCMatrix", b = "..."): see solve-methods, notably the extra argument sparse.

lu

signature(x = "dgCMatrix"): computes the LU decomposition of a square dgCMatrix object

See Also

Classes dsCMatrix, dtCMatrix, lu

Examples

(m <- Matrix(c(0,0,2:0), 3,5))
str(m)
m[,1]

Sparse Compressed, Row-oriented Numeric Matrices

Description

The dgRMatrix class is a class of sparse numeric matrices in the compressed, sparse, row-oriented format. In this implementation the non-zero elements in the rows are sorted into increasing column order.

Note: The column-oriented sparse classes, e.g., dgCMatrix, are preferred and better supported in the Matrix package.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("dgRMatrix", ...).

Slots

j:

Object of class "integer" of length nnzero (number of non-zero elements). These are the column numbers for each non-zero element in the matrix.

p:

Object of class "integer" of pointers, one for each row, to the initial (zero-based) index of elements in the row.

x:

Object of class "numeric" - the non-zero elements of the matrix.

Dim:

Object of class "integer" - the dimensions of the matrix.

Methods

diag

signature(x = "dgRMatrix"): returns the diagonal of x

dim

signature(x = "dgRMatrix"): returns the dimensions of x

image

signature(x = "dgRMatrix"): plots an image of x using the levelplot function

See Also

the RsparseMatrix class, the virtual class of all sparse compressed row-oriented matrices, with its methods. The dgCMatrix class (column compressed sparse) is really preferred.


Sparse matrices in triplet form

Description

The "dgTMatrix" class is the class of sparse matrices stored as (possibly redundant) triplets. The internal representation is not at all unique, contrary to the one for class dgCMatrix.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("dgTMatrix", ...), but more typically via spMatrix() or sparseMatrix(*, repr = "T").

Slots

i:

integer row indices of non-zero entries in 0-base, i.e., must be in 0:(nrow(.)-1).

j:

integer column indices of non-zero entries. Must be the same length as slot i and 0-based as well, i.e., in 0:(ncol(.)-1).

x:

numeric vector - the (non-zero) entry at position (i,j). Must be the same length as slot i. If an index pair occurs more than once, the corresponding values of slot x are added to form the element of the matrix.

Dim:

Object of class "integer" of length 2 - the dimensions of the matrix.

Methods

+

signature(e1 = "dgTMatrix", e2 = "dgTMatrix")

image

signature(x = "dgTMatrix"): plots an image of x using the levelplot function

t

signature(x = "dgTMatrix"): returns the transpose of x

Note

Triplet matrices are a convenient form in which to construct sparse matrices after which they can be coerced to dgCMatrix objects.

Note that both new(.) and spMatrix constructors for "dgTMatrix" (and other "TsparseMatrix" classes) implicitly add xkx_k's that belong to identical (ik,jk)(i_k, j_k) pairs.

However this means that a matrix typically can be stored in more than one possible "TsparseMatrix" representations. Use asUniqueT() in order to ensure uniqueness of the internal representation of such a matrix.

See Also

Class dgCMatrix or the superclasses dsparseMatrix and TsparseMatrix; asUniqueT.

Examples

m <- Matrix(0+1:28, nrow = 4)
m[-3,c(2,4:5,7)] <- m[ 3, 1:4] <- m[1:3, 6] <- 0
(mT <- as(m, "TsparseMatrix"))
str(mT)
mT[1,]
mT[4, drop = FALSE]
stopifnot(identical(mT[lower.tri(mT)],
                    m [lower.tri(m) ]))
mT[lower.tri(mT,diag=TRUE)] <- 0
mT

## Triplet representation with repeated (i,j) entries
## *adds* the corresponding x's:
T2 <- new("dgTMatrix",
          i = as.integer(c(1,1,0,3,3)),
          j = as.integer(c(2,2,4,0,0)), x=10*1:5, Dim=4:5)
str(T2) # contains (i,j,x) slots exactly as above, but
T2 ## has only three non-zero entries, as for repeated (i,j)'s,
   ## the corresponding x's are "implicitly" added
stopifnot(nnzero(T2) == 3)

Transform Triangular Matrices from Unit Triangular to General Triangular and Back

Description

Transform a triangular matrix x, i.e., of class triangularMatrix, from (internally!) unit triangular (“unitriangular”) to “general” triangular (diagU2N(x)) or back (diagN2U(x)). Note that the latter, diagN2U(x), also sets the diagonal to one in cases where diag(x) was not all one.

.diagU2N(x) and .diagN2U(x) assume without checking that x is a triangularMatrix with suitable diag slot ("U" and "N", respectively), hence they should be used with care.

Usage

diagU2N(x, cl = getClassDef(class(x)), checkDense = FALSE)
 diagN2U(x, cl = getClassDef(class(x)), checkDense = FALSE)

.diagU2N(x, cl = getClassDef(class(x)), checkDense = FALSE)
.diagN2U(x, cl = getClassDef(class(x)), checkDense = FALSE)

Arguments

x

a triangularMatrix, often sparse.

cl

(optional, for speedup only:) class (definition) of x.

checkDense

logical indicating if dense (see denseMatrix) matrices should be considered at all; i.e., when false, as per default, the result will be sparse even when x is dense.

Details

The concept of unit triangular matrices with a diag slot of "U" stems from LAPACK.

Value

a triangular matrix of the same class but with a different diag slot. For diagU2N (semantically) with identical entries as x, whereas in diagN2U(x), the off-diagonal entries are unchanged and the diagonal is set to all 1 even if it was not previously.

Note

Such internal storage details should rarely be of relevance to the user. Hence, these functions really are rather internal utilities.

See Also

"triangularMatrix", "dtCMatrix".

Examples

(T <- Diagonal(7) + triu(Matrix(rpois(49, 1/4), 7, 7), k = 1))
(uT <- diagN2U(T)) # "unitriangular"
(t.u <- diagN2U(10*T))# changes the diagonal!
stopifnot(all(T == uT), diag(t.u) == 1,
          identical(T, diagU2N(uT)))
T[upper.tri(T)] <- 5 # still "dtC"
T <- diagN2U(as(T,"triangularMatrix"))
dT <- as(T, "denseMatrix") # (unitriangular)
dT.n <- diagU2N(dT, checkDense = TRUE)
sT.n <- diagU2N(dT)
stopifnot(is(dT.n, "denseMatrix"), is(sT.n, "sparseMatrix"),
          dT@diag == "U", dT.n@diag == "N", sT.n@diag == "N",
          all(dT == dT.n), all(dT == sT.n))

Class "diagonalMatrix" of Diagonal Matrices

Description

Class "diagonalMatrix" is the virtual class of all diagonal matrices.

Objects from the Class

A virtual Class: No objects may be created from it.

Slots

diag:

character string, either "U" or "N", where "U" means ‘unit-diagonal’.

Dim:

matrix dimension, and

Dimnames:

the dimnames, a list, see the Matrix class description. Typically list(NULL,NULL) for diagonal matrices.

Extends

Class "sparseMatrix", directly.

Methods

These are just a subset of the signature for which defined methods. Currently, there are (too) many explicit methods defined in order to ensure efficient methods for diagonal matrices.

coerce

signature(from = "matrix", to = "diagonalMatrix"): ...

coerce

signature(from = "Matrix", to = "diagonalMatrix"): ...

t

signature(x = "diagonalMatrix"): ...


and many more methods

solve

signature(a = "diagonalMatrix", b, ...): is trivially implemented, of course; see also solve-methods.

which

signature(x = "nMatrix"), semantically equivalent to base function which(x, arr.ind).

"Math"

signature(x = "diagonalMatrix"): all these group methods return a "diagonalMatrix", apart from cumsum() etc which return a vector also for base matrix.

*

signature(e1 = "ddiMatrix", e2="denseMatrix"): arithmetic and other operators from the Ops group have a few dozen explicit method definitions, in order to keep the results diagonal in many cases, including the following:

/

signature(e1 = "ddiMatrix", e2="denseMatrix"): the result is from class ddiMatrix which is typically very desirable. Note that when e2 contains off-diagonal zeros or NAs, we implicitly use 0/x=00 / x = 0, hence differing from traditional R arithmetic (where 0/0NaN0 / 0 \mapsto \mbox{NaN}), in order to preserve sparsity.

summary

(object = "diagonalMatrix"): Returns an object of S3 class "diagSummary" which is the summary of the vector object@x plus a simple heading, and an appropriate print method.

See Also

Diagonal() as constructor of these matrices, and isDiagonal. ddiMatrix and ldiMatrix are “actual” classes extending "diagonalMatrix".

Examples

I5 <- Diagonal(5)
D5 <- Diagonal(x = 10*(1:5))
## trivial (but explicitly defined) methods:
stopifnot(identical(crossprod(I5), I5),
          identical(tcrossprod(I5), I5),
          identical(crossprod(I5, D5), D5),
          identical(tcrossprod(D5, I5), D5),
          identical(solve(D5), solve(D5, I5)),
          all.equal(D5, solve(solve(D5)), tolerance = 1e-12)
          )
solve(D5)# efficient as is diagonal

# an unusual way to construct a band matrix:
rbind2(cbind2(I5, D5),
       cbind2(D5, I5))

Scale the Rows and Columns of a Matrix

Description

dimScale, rowScale, and colScale implement D1 %*% x %*% D2, D %*% x, and x %*% D for diagonal matrices D1, D2, and D with diagonal entries d1, d2, and d, respectively. Unlike the explicit products, these functions preserve dimnames(x) and symmetry where appropriate.

Usage

dimScale(x, d1 = sqrt(1/diag(x, names = FALSE)), d2 = d1)
rowScale(x, d)
colScale(x, d)

Arguments

x

a matrix, possibly inheriting from virtual class Matrix.

d1, d2, d

numeric vectors giving factors by which to scale the rows or columns of x; they are recycled as necessary.

Details

dimScale(x) (with d1 and d2 unset) is only roughly equivalent to cov2cor(x). cov2cor sets the diagonal entries of the result to 1 (exactly); dimScale does not.

Value

The result of scaling x, currently always inheriting from virtual class dMatrix.

It inherits from triangularMatrix if and only if x does. In the special case of dimScale(x, d1, d2) with identical d1 and d2, it inherits from symmetricMatrix if and only if x does.

Dulmage-Mendelsohn Permutation / Decomposition

Description

For any n×mn \times m (typically) sparse matrix x compute the Dulmage-Mendelsohn row and columns permutations which at first splits the nn rows and m columns into coarse partitions each; and then a finer one, reordering rows and columns such that the permutated matrix is “as upper triangular” as possible.

Usage

dmperm(x, nAns = 6L, seed = 0L)

Arguments

x

a typically sparse matrix; internally coerced to either "dgCMatrix" or "dtCMatrix".

nAns

an integer specifying the length of the resulting list. Must be 2, 4, or 6.

seed

an integer code in -1,0,1; determining the (initial) permutation; by default, seed = 0, no (or the identity) permutation; seed = -1 uses the “reverse” permutation k:1; for seed = 1, it is a random permutation (using R's RNG, seed, etc).

Details

See the book section by Tim Davis; page 122–127, in the References.

Value

a named list with (by default) 6 components,

p

integer vector with the permutation p, of length nrow(x).

q

integer vector with the permutation q, of length ncol(x).

r

integer vector of length nb+1, where block k is rows r[k] to r[k+1]-1 in A[p,q].

s

integer vector of length nb+1, where block k is cols s[k] to s[k+1]-1 in A[p,q].

rr5

integer vector of length 5, defining the coarse row decomposition.

cc5

integer vector of length 5, defining the coarse column decomposition.

Positive Semi-definite Dense (Packed | Non-packed) Numeric Matrices

Description

  • The "dpoMatrix" class is the class of positive-semidefinite symmetric matrices in nonpacked storage.

  • The "dppMatrix" class is the same except in packed storage. Only the upper triangle or the lower triangle is required to be available.

  • The "corMatrix" and "copMatrix" classes represent correlation matrices. They extend "dpoMatrix" and "dppMatrix", respectively, with an additional slot sd allowing restoration of the original covariance matrix.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("dpoMatrix", ...) or from crossprod applied to an "dgeMatrix" object.

Slots

uplo:

Object of class "character". Must be either "U", for upper triangular, and "L", for lower triangular.

x:

Object of class "numeric". The numeric values that constitute the matrix, stored in column-major order.

Dim:

Object of class "integer". The dimensions of the matrix which must be a two-element vector of non-negative integers.

Dimnames:

inherited from class "Matrix"

factors:

Object of class "list". A named list of factorizations that have been computed for the matrix.

sd:

(for "corMatrix" and "copMatrix") a numeric vector of length n containing the (original) var(.)\sqrt{var(.)} entries which allow reconstruction of a covariance matrix from the correlation matrix.

Extends

Class "dsyMatrix", directly.
Classes "dgeMatrix", "symmetricMatrix", and many more by class "dsyMatrix".

Methods

chol

signature(x = "dpoMatrix"): Returns (and stores) the Cholesky decomposition of x, see chol.

determinant

signature(x = "dpoMatrix"): Returns the determinant of x, via chol(x), see above.

rcond

signature(x = "dpoMatrix", norm = "character"): Returns (and stores) the reciprocal of the condition number of x. The norm can be "O" for the one-norm (the default) or "I" for the infinity-norm. For symmetric matrices the result does not depend on the norm.

solve

signature(a = "dpoMatrix", b = "...."), and

solve

signature(a = "dppMatrix", b = "....") work via the Cholesky composition, see also the Matrix solve-methods.

Arith

signature(e1 = "dpoMatrix", e2 = "numeric") (and quite a few other signatures): The result of (“elementwise” defined) arithmetic operations is typically not positive-definite anymore. The only exceptions, currently, are multiplications, divisions or additions with positive length(.) == 1 numbers (or logicals).

Note

Currently the validity methods for these classes such as getValidity(getClass("dpoMatrix")) for efficiency reasons only check the diagonal entries of the matrix – they may not be negative. This is only necessary but not sufficient for a symmetric matrix to be positive semi-definite.

A more reliable (but often more expensive) check for positive semi-definiteness would look at the signs of diag(BunchKaufman(.)) (with some tolerance for very small negative values), and for (strict) positive definiteness at something like !inherits(tryCatch(chol(.), error=identity), "error") . Indeed, when coercing to these classes, a version of Cholesky() or chol() is typically used, e.g., see selectMethod("coerce", c(from="dsyMatrix", to="dpoMatrix")) .

Classes dsyMatrix and dgeMatrix; further, Matrix, rcond, chol, solve, crossprod.

h6 <- Hilbert(6)
rcond(h6)

                    tolerance = 1e-14),
          all.equal(ch6@sd^(-2), 2*(1:6)-1,
                    tolerance = 1e-12))
chch <- Cholesky(ch6, perm = FALSE)

          all(abs(crossprod(as(chch, "dtrMatrix")) - ch6) < 1e-10))

Drop Non-Structural Zeros from a Sparse Matrix

Description

Deletes “non-structural” zeros (i.e., zeros stored explicitly, in memory) from a sparse matrix and returns the result.

Usage

drop0(x, tol = 0, is.Csparse = NA, give.Csparse = TRUE)

Arguments

x

a Matrix, typically inheriting from virtual class sparseMatrix. denseMatrix and traditional vectors and matrices are coerced to CsparseMatrix, with zeros dropped automatically, hence users passing such x should consider as(x, "CsparseMatrix") instead, notably in the tol = 0 case.

tol

a non-negative number. If x is numeric, then entries less than or equal to tol in absolute value are deleted.

is.Csparse

a logical used only if give.Csparse is TRUE, indicating if x already inherits from virtual class CsparseMatrix, in which case coercion is not attempted, permitting some (typically small) speed-up.

give.Csparse

a logical indicating if the result must inherit from virtual class CsparseMatrix. If FALSE and x inherits from RsparseMatrix, TsparseMatrix, or indMatrix, then the result preserves the class of x. The default value is TRUE only for backwards compatibility.

Value

A sparseMatrix, the result of deleting non-structural zeros from x, possibly after coercion.

Note

drop0 is sometimes called in conjunction with zapsmall, e.g., when dealing with sparse matrix products; see the example.

See Also

Function sparseMatrix, for constructing objects inheriting from virtual class sparseMatrix; nnzero.

Examples

(m <- sparseMatrix(i = 1:8, j = 2:9, x = c(0:2, 3:-1),
                   dims = c(10L, 20L)))
drop0(m)

## A larger example:
t5 <- new("dtCMatrix", Dim = c(5L, 5L), uplo = "L",
          x = c(10, 1, 3, 10, 1, 10, 1, 10, 10),
          i = c(0L,2L,4L, 1L, 3L,2L,4L, 3L, 4L),
          p = c(0L, 3L, 5L, 7:9))
TT <- kronecker(t5, kronecker(kronecker(t5, t5), t5))
IT <- solve(TT)
I. <- TT %*% IT ;  nnzero(I.) # 697 ( == 625 + 72 )
I.0 <- drop0(zapsmall(I.))
## which actually can be more efficiently achieved by
I.. <- drop0(I., tol = 1e-15)
stopifnot(all(I.0 == Diagonal(625)), nnzero(I..) == 625)

Numeric Symmetric Sparse (column compressed) Matrices

Description

The dsCMatrix class is a class of symmetric, sparse numeric matrices in the compressed, column-oriented format. In this implementation the non-zero elements in the columns are sorted into increasing row order.

The dsTMatrix class is the class of symmetric, sparse numeric matrices in triplet format.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("dsCMatrix", ...) or new("dsTMatrix", ...), or automatically via e.g., as(*, "symmetricMatrix"), or (for dsCMatrix) also from Matrix(.).

Creation “from scratch” most efficiently happens via sparseMatrix(*, symmetric=TRUE).

Slots

uplo:

A character object indicating if the upper triangle ("U") or the lower triangle ("L") is stored.

i:

Object of class "integer" of length nnZ (half number of non-zero elements). These are the row numbers for each non-zero element in the lower triangle of the matrix.

p:

(only in class "dsCMatrix":) an integer vector for providing pointers, one for each column, see the detailed description in CsparseMatrix.

j:

(only in class "dsTMatrix":) Object of class "integer" of length nnZ (as i). These are the column numbers for each non-zero element in the lower triangle of the matrix.

x:

Object of class "numeric" of length nnZ – the non-zero elements of the matrix (to be duplicated for full matrix).

factors:

Object of class "list" - a list of factorizations of the matrix.

Dim:

Object of class "integer" - the dimensions of the matrix - must be an integer vector with exactly two non-negative values.

Extends

Both classes extend classes and symmetricMatrix dsparseMatrix directly; dsCMatrix further directly extends CsparseMatrix, where dsTMatrix does TsparseMatrix.

Methods

solve

signature(a = "dsCMatrix", b = "...."): x <- solve(a,b) solves Ax=bA x = b for xx; see solve-methods.

chol

signature(x = "dsCMatrix", pivot = "logical"): Returns (and stores) the Cholesky decomposition of x, see chol.

Cholesky

signature(A = "dsCMatrix",...): Computes more flexibly Cholesky decompositions, see Cholesky.

determinant

signature(x = "dsCMatrix", logarithm = "missing"): Evaluate the determinant of x on the logarithm scale. This creates and stores the Cholesky factorization.

determinant

signature(x = "dsCMatrix", logarithm = "logical"): Evaluate the determinant of x on the logarithm scale or not, according to the logarithm argument. This creates and stores the Cholesky factorization.

t

signature(x = "dsCMatrix"): Transpose. As for all symmetric matrices, a matrix for which the upper triangle is stored produces a matrix for which the lower triangle is stored and vice versa, i.e., the uplo slot is swapped, and the row and column indices are interchanged.

t

signature(x = "dsTMatrix"): Transpose. The uplo slot is swapped from "U" to "L" or vice versa, as for a "dsCMatrix", see above.

See Also

Classes dgCMatrix, dgTMatrix, dgeMatrix and those mentioned above.

Examples

mm <- Matrix(toeplitz(c(10, 0, 1, 0, 3)), sparse = TRUE)
mm # automatically dsCMatrix
str(mm)
mT <- as(as(mm, "generalMatrix"), "TsparseMatrix")

## Either
(symM <- as(mT, "symmetricMatrix")) # dsT
(symC <- as(symM, "CsparseMatrix")) # dsC
## or
sT <- Matrix(mT, sparse=TRUE, forceCheck=TRUE) # dsT

sym2 <- as(symC, "TsparseMatrix")
## --> the same as 'symM', a "dsTMatrix"

Expand Matrix Factorizations

Description

expand1 and expand2 construct matrix factors from objects specifying matrix factorizations. Such objects typically do not store the factors explicitly, employing instead a compact representation to save memory.

Usage

expand1(x, which, ...)
expand2(x, ...)

expand (x, ...)

Arguments

x

a matrix factorization, typically inheriting from virtual class MatrixFactorization.

which

a character string indicating a matrix factor.

...

further arguments passed to or from methods.

Details

Methods for expand are retained only for backwards compatibility with Matrix < 1.6-0. New code should use expand1 and expand2, whose methods provide more control and behave more consistently. Notably, expand2 obeys the rule that the product of the matrix factors in the returned list should reproduce (within some tolerance) the factorized matrix, including its dimnames.

Hence if x is a matrix and y is its factorization, then

    all.equal(as(x, "matrix"), as(Reduce(`%*%`, expand2(y)), "matrix"))

should in most cases return TRUE.

Value

expand1 returns an object inheriting from virtual class Matrix, representing the factor indicated by which, always without row and column names.

expand2 returns a list of factors, typically with names using conventional notation, as in list(L=, U=). The first and last factors get the row and column names of the factorized matrix, which are preserved in the Dimnames slot of x.

Methods

The following table lists methods for expand1 together with allowed values of argument which.

class(x) which
Schur c("Q", "T", "Q.")
denseLU c("P1", "P1.", "L", "U")
sparseLU c("P1", "P1.", "P2", "P2.", "L", "U")

CHMsimpl, CHMsimpl c("P1", "P1.", "L1", "D", "L1.", "L", "L.")

Methods for expand2 and expand are described below. Factor names and classes apply also to expand1.

expand2

signature(x = "CHMsimpl"): expands the factorization A=P1L1DL1P1=P1LLP1A = P_{1}' L_{1} D L_{1}' P_{1} = P_{1}' L L' P_{1} as list(P1., L1, D, L1., P1) (the default) or as list(P1., L, L., P1), depending on optional logical argument LDL. P1 and P1. are pMatrix, L1, L1., L, and L. are dtCMatrix, and D is a ddiMatrix.

expand2

signature(x = "CHMsuper"): as CHMsimpl, but the triangular factors are stored as dgCMatrix.

expand2

signature(x = "p?Cholesky"): expands the factorization A=L1DL1=LLA = L_{1} D L_{1}' = L L' as list(L1, D, L1.) (the default) or as list(L, L.), depending on optional logical argument LDL. L1, L1., L, and L. are dtrMatrix or dtpMatrix, and D is a ddiMatrix.

expand2

signature(x = "p?BunchKaufman"): expands the factorization A=UDUU=LDLLA = U D_{U} U' = L D_{L} L' where U=k=1bUPkUkU = \prod_{k = 1}^{b_{U}} P_{k} U_{k} and L=k=1bLPkLkL = \prod_{k = 1}^{b_{L}} P_{k} L_{k} as list(U, DU, U.) or list(L, DL, L.), depending on x@uplo. If optional argument complete is TRUE, then an unnamed list giving the full expansion with 2bU+12 b_{U} + 1 or 2bL+12 b_{L} + 1 matrix factors is returned instead. PkP_{k} are represented as pMatrix, UkU_{k} and LkL_{k} are represented as dtCMatrix, and DUD_{U} and DLD_{L} are represented as dsCMatrix.

expand2

signature(x = "Schur"): expands the factorization A=QTQA = Q T Q' as list(Q, T, Q.). Q and Q. are x@Q and t(x@Q) modulo Dimnames, and T is x@T.

expand2

signature(x = "sparseLU"): expands the factorization A=P1LUP2A = P_{1}' L U P_{2}' as list(P1., L, U, P2.). P1. and P2. are pMatrix, and L and U are dtCMatrix.

expand2

signature(x = "denseLU"): expands the factorization A=P1LUA = P_{1}' L U as list(P1., L, U). P1. is a pMatrix, and L and U are dtrMatrix if square and dgeMatrix otherwise.

expand2

signature(x = "sparseQR"): expands the factorization A=P1QRP2=P1Q1R1P2A = P_{1}' Q R P_{2}' = P_{1}' Q_{1} R_{1} P_{2}' as list(P1., Q, R, P2.) or list(P1., Q1, R1, P2.), depending on optional logical argument complete. P1. and P2. are pMatrix, Q and Q1 are dgeMatrix, R is a dgCMatrix, and R1 is a dtCMatrix.

expand

signature(x = "CHMfactor"): as expand2, but returning list(P, L). expand(x)[["P"]] and expand2(x)[["P1"]] represent the same permutation matrix P1P_{1} but have opposite margin slots and inverted perm slots. The components of expand(x) do not preserve x@Dimnames.

expand

signature(x = "sparseLU"): as expand2, but returning list(P, L, U, Q). expand(x)[["Q"]] and expand2(x)[["P2."]] represent the same permutation matrix P2P_{2}' but have opposite margin slots and inverted perm slots. expand(x)[["P"]] represents the permutation matrix P1P_{1} rather than its transpose P1P_{1}'; it is expand2(x)[["P1."]] with an inverted perm slot. expand(x)[["L"]] and expand2(x)[["L"]] represent the same unit lower triangular matrix LL, but with diag slot equal to "N" and "U", respectively. expand(x)[["L"]] and expand(x)[["U"]] store the permuted first and second components of x@Dimnames in their Dimnames slots.

expand

signature(x = "denseLU"): as expand2, but returning list(L, U, P). expand(x)[["P"]] and expand2(x)[["P1."]] are identical modulo Dimnames. The components of expand(x) do not preserve x@Dimnames.

Matrix Exponential

Description

Compute the exponential of a matrix.

Usage

expm(x)

Arguments

x

a matrix, typically inheriting from the dMatrix class.

Details

The exponential of a matrix is defined as the infinite Taylor series expm(A) = I + A + A^2/2! + A^3/3! + ... (although this is definitely not the way to compute it). The method for the dgeMatrix class uses Ward's diagonal Pade' approximation with three step preconditioning, a recommendation from Moler & Van Loan (1978) “Nineteen dubious ways...”.

Value

The matrix exponential of x.

This is a translation of the implementation of the corresponding Octave function contributed to the Octave project by A. Scottedward Hodel [email protected]. A bug in there has been fixed by Martin Maechler.

Read and write external matrix formats

Description

Read matrices stored in the Harwell-Boeing or MatrixMarket formats or write sparseMatrix objects to one of these formats.

Usage

readHB(file)
readMM(file)
writeMM(obj, file, ...)

Arguments

obj

a real sparse matrix

file

for writeMM - the name of the file to be written. For readHB and readMM the name of the file to read, as a character scalar. The names of files storing matrices in the Harwell-Boeing format usually end in ".rua" or ".rsa". Those storing matrices in the MatrixMarket format usually end in ".mtx".

Alternatively, readHB and readMM accept connection objects.

...

optional additional arguments. Currently none are used in any methods.

Value

The readHB and readMM functions return an object that inherits from the "Matrix" class. Methods for the writeMM generic functions usually return NULL and, as a side effect, the matrix obj is written to file in the MatrixMarket format (writeMM).

Note

The Harwell-Boeing format is older and less flexible than the MatrixMarket format. The function writeHB was deprecated and has now been removed. Please use writeMM instead.

Note that these formats do not know anything about dimnames, hence these are dropped by writeMM().

A very simple way to export small sparse matrices S, is to use summary(S) which returns a data.frame with columns i, j, and possibly x, see summary in sparseMatrix-class, and an example below.

Multiplication by Factors from Matrix Factorizations

Description

Multiplies a matrix or vector on the left or right by a factor from a matrix factorization or its transpose.

Usage

facmul(x, factor, y, trans = FALSE, left = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

x

a MatrixFactorization object.

factor

a character string indicating a factor in the factorization represented by x, typically an element of names(expand2(x, ...)).

y

a matrix or vector to be multiplied on the left or right by the factor or its transpose.

trans

a logical indicating if the transpose of the factor should be used, rather than the factor itself.

left

a logical indicating if the y should be multiplied on the left by the factor, rather than on the right.

...

further arguments passed to or from methods.

Details

facmul is experimental and currently no methods are exported from Matrix.

Value

The value of op(M) %*% y or y %*% op(M), depending on left, where M is the factor (always without dimnames) and op(M) is M or t(M), depending on trans.

Examples

## Conceptually, methods for 'facmul' _would_ behave as follows ...
## Not run: 
n <- 3L
x <- lu(Matrix(rnorm(n * n), n, n))
y <- rnorm(n)
L <- unname(expand2(x)[[nm <- "L"]])
stopifnot(exprs = {
    all.equal(facmul(x, nm, y, trans = FALSE, left =  TRUE), L %*% y)
    all.equal(facmul(x, nm, y, trans = FALSE, left = FALSE), y %*% L)
    all.equal(facmul(x, nm, y, trans =  TRUE, left =  TRUE),  crossprod(L, y))
    all.equal(facmul(x, nm, y, trans =  TRUE, left = FALSE), tcrossprod(y, L))
})

## End(Not run)

“Low Level” Coercions and Methods

Description

“Semi-API” functions used internally by Matrix, often to bypass S4 dispatch and avoid the associated overhead. These are exported to provide this capability to expert users. Typical users should continue to rely on S4 generic functions to dispatch suitable methods, by calling, e.g., as(., <class>) for coercions.

Usage

.M2kind(from, kind = ".", sparse = NA)

.M2gen(from, kind = ".")
.M2sym(from, ...)
.M2tri(from, ...)

.solve.dgC.qr  (a, b, order = 3L, check = TRUE)
.solve.dgC.chol(a, b, check = TRUE)

.updateCHMfactor(object, parent, mult = 0)

Arguments

from, x, a, b

a Matrix, matrix, or vector.

kind

a string (".", ",", "n", "l", or "d") specifying the “kind” of the result. "." indicates that the kind of from should be preserved. "," is equivalent to "z" if from is complex and to "d" otherwise. "n" indicates that the result should inherit from nMatrix or nsparseVector (and so on).

shape

a string (".", "g", "s", or "t") specifying the “shape” of the result. "." indicates that the shape of from should be preserved. "g" indicates that the result should inherit from generalMatrix (and so on).

repr

a string (".", "C", "R", or "T") specifying the sparse representation of the result. "." is accepted only by .ind2sparse and indicates the most efficient representation, which is "C" ("R") for margin = 2 (1). "C" indicates that the result should inherit from CsparseMatrix (and so on).

packed

a logical indicating if the result should inherit from packedMatrix rather than from unpackedMatrix. It is ignored for from inheriting from generalMatrix.

sparse

a logical indicating if the result should inherit from sparseMatrix rather than from denseMatrix. If NA, then the result will be formally sparse if and only if from is.

uplo

a string ("U" or "L") indicating whether the result (if symmetric or triangular) should store the upper or lower triangle of from. The elements of from in the opposite triangle are ignored.

diag

a string ("N" or "U") indicating whether the result (if triangular) should be formally nonunit or unit triangular. In the unit triangular case, the diagonal elements of from are ignored.

trans

a logical indicating if the result should be a 1-row matrix rather than a 1-column matrix where from is a vector but not a matrix.

class

a string whose first three characters specify the class of the result. It should match the pattern "^[.nld](ge|sy|tr|sp|tp)" for .m2dense and "^[.nld][gst][CRT]" for .m2sparse, where "." in the first position is equivalent to "l" for logical arguments and "d" for numeric arguments.

...

optional arguments passed to isSymmetric or isTriangular.

lazy

a logical indicating if the transpose should be constructed with minimal allocation, but possibly without preserving representation.

Chx

optionally, the Cholesky(x, ...) factorization of x. If supplied, then x is unused.

res.kind

a string in c("trace", "sumLog", "prod", "min", "max", "range", "diag", "diagBack").

tol

see lu-methods.

order

see qr-methods.

check

a logical indicating if the first argument should be tested for inheritance from dgCMatrix and coerced if necessary. Set to FALSE for speed only if it is known to already inherit from dgCMatrix.

object

a Cholesky factorization inheriting from virtual class CHMfactor, almost always the result of a call to generic function Cholesky.

parent

an object of class dsCMatrix or class dgCMatrix.

mult

a numeric vector of postive length. Only the first element is used, and that must be finite.

Details

Functions with names of the form .<A>2<B> implement coercions from virtual class A to the “nearest” non-virtual subclass of virtual class B, where the virtual classes are abbreviated as follows:

M

Matrix

V

sparseVector

m

matrix

v

vector

dense

denseMatrix

unpacked

unpackedMatrix

packed

packedMatrix

sparse

CsparseMatrix, RsparseMatrix, or TsparseMatrix

C

CsparseMatrix

R

RsparseMatrix

T

TsparseMatrix

gen

generalMatrix

sym

symmetricMatrix

tri

triangularMatrix

diag

diagonalMatrix

ind

indMatrix

Abbreviations should be seen as a guide, rather than as an exact description of behaviour. Notably, .m2dense, .m2sparse, and .m2V accept vectors that are not matrices.

.tCRT(x)

If lazy = TRUE, then .tCRT constructs the transpose of x using the most efficient representation, which for ‘⁠CRT⁠’ is ‘⁠RCT⁠’. If lazy = FALSE, then .tCRT preserves the representation of x, behaving as the corresponding methods for generic function t.

.diag.dsC(x)

.diag.dsC computes (or uses if Chx is supplied) the Cholesky factorization of x as LDLL D L' in order to calculate one of several possible statistics from the diagonal entries of DD. See res.kind under ‘Arguments’.

.solve.dgC.*(a, b)

.solve.dgC.lu(a, b) needs a square matrix a. .solve.dgC.qr(a, b) needs a “long” matrix a, with nrow(a) >= ncol(a). .solve.dgC.chol(a, b) needs a “wide” matrix a, with nrow(a) <= ncol(a).

All three may be used to solve sparse linear systems directly. Only .solve.dgC.qr and .solve.dgC.chol be used to solve sparse least squares problems.

.updateCHMfactor(object, parent, mult)

.updateCHMfactor updates object with the result of Cholesky factorizing F(parent) + mult[1] * diag(nrow(parent)), i.e., F(parent) plus mult[1] times the identity matrix, where F = identity if parent is a dsCMatrix and F = tcrossprod if parent is a dgCMatrix. The nonzero pattern of F(parent) must match that of S if object = Cholesky(S, ...).

Force a Matrix to 'symmetricMatrix' Without Symmetry Checks

Description

Force a square matrix x to a symmetricMatrix, without a symmetry check as it would be applied for as(x, "symmetricMatrix").

Usage

forceSymmetric(x, uplo)

Arguments

x

any square matrix (of numbers), either “"traditional"” (matrix) or inheriting from Matrix.

uplo

optional string, "U" or "L" indicating which “triangle” half of x should determine the result. The default is "U" unless x already has a uplo slot (i.e., when it is symmetricMatrix, or triangularMatrix), where the default will be x@uplo.

Value

a square matrix inheriting from class symmetricMatrix.

See Also

symmpart for the symmetric part of a matrix, or the coercions as(x, <symmetricMatrix class>).

Examples

## Hilbert matrix
 i <- 1:6
 h6 <- 1/outer(i - 1L, i, "+")
 sd <- sqrt(diag(h6))
 hh <- t(h6/sd)/sd # theoretically symmetric
 isSymmetric(hh, tol=0) # FALSE; hence
 try( as(hh, "symmetricMatrix") ) # fails, but this works fine:
 H6 <- forceSymmetric(hh)

 ## result can be pretty surprising:
 (M <- Matrix(1:36, 6))
 forceSymmetric(M) # symmetric, hence very different in lower triangle
 (tm <- tril(M))
 forceSymmetric(tm)

Formatting Sparse Numeric Matrices Utilities

Description

Utilities for formatting sparse numeric matrices in a flexible way. These functions are used by the format and print methods for sparse matrices and can be applied as well to standard R matrices. Note that all arguments but the first are optional.

formatSparseM() is the main “workhorse” of formatSpMatrix, the format method for sparse matrices.

.formatSparseSimple() is a simple helper function, also dealing with (short/empty) column names construction.

Usage

formatSparseM(x, zero.print = ".", align = c("fancy", "right"),
              m = as(x,"matrix"), asLogical=NULL, uniDiag=NULL,
              digits=NULL, cx, iN0, dn = dimnames(m))

.formatSparseSimple(m, asLogical=FALSE, digits=NULL,
		    col.names, note.dropping.colnames = TRUE,
                    dn=dimnames(m))

Arguments

x

an R object inheriting from class sparseMatrix.

zero.print

character which should be used for structural zeroes. The default "." may occasionally be replaced by " " (blank); using "0" would look almost like print()ing of non-sparse matrices.

align

a string specifying how the zero.print codes should be aligned, see formatSpMatrix.

m

(optional) a (standard R) matrix version of x.

asLogical

should the matrix be formatted as a logical matrix (or rather as a numeric one); mostly for formatSparseM().

uniDiag

logical indicating if the diagonal entries of a sparse unit triangular or unit-diagonal matrix should be formatted as "I" instead of "1" (to emphasize that the 1's are “structural”).

digits

significant digits to use for printing, see print.default.

cx

(optional) character matrix; a formatted version of x, still with strings such as "0.00" for the zeros.

iN0

(optional) integer vector, specifying the location of the non-zeroes of x.

col.names, note.dropping.colnames

see formatSpMatrix.

dn

dimnames to be used; a list (of length two) with row and column names (or NULL).

Value

a character matrix like cx, where the zeros have been replaced with (padded versions of) zero.print. As this is a dense matrix, do not use these functions for really large (really) sparse matrices!

formatSpMatrix which calls formatSparseM() and is the format method for sparse matrices.
printSpMatrix which is used by the (typically implicitly called) show and print methods for sparse matrices.

Examples

m <- suppressWarnings(matrix(c(0, 3.2, 0,0, 11,0,0,0,0,-7,0), 4,9))
fm <- formatSparseM(m)
noquote(fm)
## nice, but this is nicer {with "units" vertically aligned}:
print(fm, quote=FALSE, right=TRUE)
## and "the same" as :
Matrix(m)

## align = "right" is cheaper -->  the "." are not aligned:
noquote(f2 <- formatSparseM(m,align="r"))
stopifnot(f2 == fm   |   m == 0, dim(f2) == dim(m),
         (f2 == ".") == (m == 0))

Class "generalMatrix" of General Matrices

Description

Virtual class of “general” matrices; i.e., matrices that do not have a known property such as symmetric, triangular, or diagonal.

Objects from the Class

A virtual Class: No objects may be created from it.

Slots

Dim, Dimnames

inherited from virtual class Matrix.

factors

a list of MatrixFactorization objects caching factorizations of the matrix. Typically, it is initialized as an empty list and updated “automagically” whenever a factorization is computed.

Extends

Class "Matrix", directly.

See Also

Virtual classes symmetricMatrix, triangularMatrix, and diagonalMatrix.


Methods for image() in Package 'Matrix'

Description

Methods for function image in package Matrix. An image of a matrix simply color codes all matrix entries and draws the n×mn\times m matrix using an n×mn\times m grid of (colored) rectangles.

The Matrix package image methods are based on levelplot() from package lattice; hence these methods return an “object” of class "trellis", producing a graphic when (auto-) print()ed.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'dgTMatrix'
image(x,
      xlim = c(1, di[2]),
      ylim = c(di[1], 1), aspect = "iso",
      sub = sprintf("Dimensions: %d x %d", di[1], di[2]),
      xlab = "Column", ylab = "Row", cuts = 15,
      useRaster = FALSE,
      useAbs = NULL, colorkey = !useAbs,
      col.regions = NULL,
      lwd = NULL, border.col = NULL, ...)

Arguments

x

a Matrix object, i.e., fulfilling is(x, "Matrix").

xlim, ylim

x- and y-axis limits; may be used to “zoom into” matrix. Note that x,yx,y “feel reversed”: ylim is for the rows (= 1st index) and xlim for the columns (= 2nd index). For convenience, when the limits are integer valued, they are both extended by 0.5; also, ylim is always used decreasingly.

aspect

aspect ratio specified as number (y/x) or string; see levelplot.

sub, xlab, ylab

axis annotation with sensible defaults; see plot.default.

cuts

number of levels the range of matrix values would be divided into.

useRaster

logical indicating if raster graphics should be used (instead of the tradition rectangle vector drawing). If true, panel.levelplot.raster (from lattice package) is used, and the colorkey is also done via rasters, see also levelplot and possibly grid.raster.

Note that using raster graphics may often be faster, but can be slower, depending on the matrix dimensions and the graphics device (dimensions).

useAbs

logical indicating if abs(x) should be shown; if TRUE, the former (implicit) default, the default col.regions will be grey colors (and no colorkey drawn). The default is FALSE unless the matrix has no negative entries.

colorkey

logical indicating if a color key aka ‘legend’ should be produced. Default is to draw one, unless useAbs is true. You can also specify a list, see levelplot, such aslist(raster=TRUE) in the case of rastering.

col.regions

vector of gradually varying colors; see levelplot.

lwd

(only used when useRaster is false:) non-negative number or NULL (default), specifying the line-width of the rectangles of each non-zero matrix entry (drawn by grid.rect). The default depends on the matrix dimension and the device size.

border.col

color for the border of each rectangle. NA means no border is drawn. When NULL as by default, border.col <- if(lwd < .01) NA else NULL is used. Consider using an opaque color instead of NULL which corresponds to grid::get.gpar("col").

...

further arguments passed to methods and levelplot, notably at for specifying (possibly non equidistant) cut values for dividing the matrix values (superseding cuts above).

Value

as all lattice graphics functions, image(<Matrix>) returns a "trellis" object, effectively the result of levelplot().

Methods

All methods currently end up calling the method for the dgTMatrix class. Use showMethods(image) to list them all.

See Also

levelplot, and print.trellis from package lattice.

Examples

showMethods(image)
## And if you want to see the method definitions:
showMethods(image, includeDefs = TRUE, inherited = FALSE)

data(CAex, package = "Matrix")

image(CAex, useAbs=TRUE, main = "image(CAex, useAbs=TRUE)")

cCA <- Cholesky(crossprod(CAex), Imult = .01)
## See  ?print.trellis --- place two image() plots side by side:
print(image(cCA, main="Cholesky(crossprod(CAex), Imult = .01)"),
      split=c(x=1,y=1,nx=2, ny=1), more=TRUE)
print(image(cCA, useAbs=TRUE),
      split=c(x=2,y=1,nx=2,ny=1))

data(USCounties, package = "Matrix")
image(USCounties)# huge
image(sign(USCounties))## just the pattern
    # how the result looks, may depend heavily on
    # the device, screen resolution, antialiasing etc
    # e.g. x11(type="Xlib") may show very differently than cairo-based

## Drawing borders around each rectangle;
    # again, viewing depends very much on the device:
image(USCounties[1:400,1:200], lwd=.1)
## Using (xlim,ylim) has advantage : matrix dimension and (col/row) indices:
image(USCounties, c(1,200), c(1,400), lwd=.1)
image(USCounties, c(1,300), c(1,200), lwd=.5 )
image(USCounties, c(1,300), c(1,200), lwd=.01)
## These 3 are all equivalent :
(I1 <- image(USCounties, c(1,100), c(1,100), useAbs=FALSE))
 I2 <- image(USCounties, c(1,100), c(1,100), useAbs=FALSE,        border.col=NA)
 I3 <- image(USCounties, c(1,100), c(1,100), useAbs=FALSE, lwd=2, border.col=NA)
stopifnot(all.equal(I1, I2, check.environment=FALSE),
          all.equal(I2, I3, check.environment=FALSE))
## using an opaque border color
image(USCounties, c(1,100), c(1,100), useAbs=FALSE, lwd=3, border.col = adjustcolor("skyblue", 1/2))

if(interactive() || nzchar(Sys.getenv("R_MATRIX_CHECK_EXTRA"))) {
## Using raster graphics: For PDF this would give a 77 MB file,
## however, for such a large matrix, this is typically considerably
## *slower* (than vector graphics rectangles) in most cases :
if(doPNG <- !dev.interactive())
   png("image-USCounties-raster.png", width=3200, height=3200)
image(USCounties, useRaster = TRUE) # should not suffer from anti-aliasing
if(doPNG)
   dev.off()
   ## and now look at the *.png image in a viewer you can easily zoom in and out
}#only if(doExtras)

Index Matrices

Description

The indMatrix class is the class of row and column index matrices, stored as 1-based integer index vectors. A row (column) index matrix is a matrix whose rows (columns) are standard unit vectors. Such matrices are useful when mapping observations to discrete sets of covariate values.

Multiplying a matrix on the left by a row index matrix is equivalent to indexing its rows, i.e., sampling the rows “with replacement”. Analogously, multiplying a matrix on the right by a column index matrix is equivalent to indexing its columns. Indeed, such products are implemented in Matrix as indexing operations; see ‘Details’ below.

A matrix whose rows and columns are standard unit vectors is called a permutation matrix. This special case is designated by the pMatrix class, a direct subclass of indMatrix.

Details

The transpose of an index matrix is an index matrix with identical perm but opposite margin. Hence the transpose of a row index matrix is a column index matrix, and vice versa.

The cross product of a row index matrix R and itself is a diagonal matrix whose diagonal entries are the the number of entries in each column of R.

Given a row index matrix R with perm slot p, a column index matrix C with perm slot q, and a matrix M with conformable dimensions, we have

RMR M = R %*% M = M[p, ]
MCM C = M %*% C = M[, q]
CMC'M = crossprod(C, M) = M[q, ]
MRMR' = tcrossprod(M, R) = M[, p]
RRR'R = crossprod(R) = Diagonal(x=tabulate(p, ncol(R)))
CCCC' = tcrossprod(C) = Diagonal(x=tabulate(q, nrow(C)))

Operations on index matrices that result in index matrices will accordingly return an indMatrix. These include products of two column index matrices and (equivalently) column-indexing of a column index matrix (when dimensions are not dropped). Most other operations on indMatrix treat them as sparse nonzero pattern matrices (i.e., inheriting from virtual class nsparseMatrix). Hence vector-valued subsets of indMatrix, such as those given by diag, are always of type "logical".

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created explicitly with calls of the form new("indMatrix", ...), but they are more commonly created by coercing 1-based integer index vectors, with calls of the form as(., "indMatrix"); see ‘Methods’ below.

Slots

margin

an integer, either 1 or 2, specifying whether the matrix is a row (1) or column (2) index.

perm

a 1-based integer index vector, i.e., a vector of length Dim[margin] with elements taken from 1:Dim[1+margin%%2].

Dim,Dimnames

inherited from virtual superclass Matrix.

Extends

Classes "sparseMatrix" and "generalMatrix", directly.

Methods

%*%

signature(x = "indMatrix", y = "Matrix") and others listed by showMethods("%*%", classes = "indMatrix"): matrix products implemented where appropriate as indexing operations.

coerce

signature(from = "numeric", to = "indMatrix"): supporting typical indMatrix construction from a vector of positive integers. Row indexing is assumed.

coerce

signature(from = "list", to = "indMatrix"): supporting indMatrix construction for row and column indexing, including index vectors of length 0 and index vectors whose maximum is less than the number of rows or columns being indexed.

coerce

signature(from = "indMatrix", to = "matrix"): coercion to a traditional matrix of logical type, with FALSE and TRUE in place of 0 and 1.

t

signature(x = "indMatrix"): the transpose, which is an indMatrix with identical perm but opposite margin.

rowSums,rowMeans,colSums,colMeans

signature(x = "indMatrix"): row and column sums and means.

rbind2,cbind2

signature(x = "indMatrix", y = "indMatrix"): row-wise catenation of two row index matrices with equal numbers of columns and column-wise catenation of two column index matrices with equal numbers of rows.

kronecker

signature(X = "indMatrix", Y = "indMatrix"): Kronecker product of two row index matrices or two column index matrices, giving the row or column index matrix corresponding to their “interaction”.

Author(s)

Fabian Scheipl at ‘uni-muenchen.de’, building on the existing class pMatrix after a nice hike's conversation with Martin Maechler. Methods for crossprod(x, y) and kronecker(x, y) with both arguments inheriting from indMatrix were made considerably faster thanks to a suggestion by Boris Vaillant. Diverse tweaks by Martin Maechler and Mikael Jagan, notably the latter's implementation of margin, prior to which the indMatrix class was designated only for row index matrices.

Examples

p1 <- as(c(2,3,1), "pMatrix")
(sm1 <- as(rep(c(2,3,1), e=3), "indMatrix"))
stopifnot(all(sm1 == p1[rep(1:3, each=3),]))

## row-indexing of a <pMatrix> turns it into an <indMatrix>:
class(p1[rep(1:3, each=3),])

set.seed(12) # so we know '10' is in sample
## random index matrix for 30 observations and 10 unique values:
(s10 <- as(sample(10, 30, replace=TRUE),"indMatrix"))

## Sample rows of a numeric matrix :
(mm <- matrix(1:10, nrow=10, ncol=3))
s10 %*% mm

set.seed(27)
IM1 <- as(sample(1:20, 100, replace=TRUE), "indMatrix")
IM2 <- as(sample(1:18, 100, replace=TRUE), "indMatrix")
(c12 <- crossprod(IM1,IM2))
## same as cross-tabulation of the two index vectors:
stopifnot(all(c12 - unclass(table(IM1@perm, IM2@perm)) == 0))

# 3 observations, 4 implied values, first does not occur in sample:
as(2:4, "indMatrix")
# 3 observations, 5 values, first and last do not occur in sample:
as(list(2:4, 5), "indMatrix")

as(sm1, "nMatrix")
s10[1:7, 1:4] # gives an "ngTMatrix" (most economic!)
s10[1:4, ]  # preserves "indMatrix"-class

I1 <- as(c(5:1,6:4,7:3), "indMatrix")
I2 <- as(7:1, "pMatrix")
(I12 <- rbind(I1, I2))
stopifnot(is(I12, "indMatrix"),
          identical(I12, rbind(I1, I2)),
	  colSums(I12) == c(2L,2:4,4:2))

Virtual Class “index” of Index Vectors

Description

Class index is a virtual class designating index vectors, or “subscripts”, for (possibly named) vectors and arrays. It is typically used in signatures of methods for the subscript and subassignment operators, namely [ and [<-. It is implemented as a union of the atomic vector classes numeric, logical, and character.

Utilities for Permutation Vectors

Description

invertPerm and signPerm compute the inverse and sign of a length-n permutation vector. isPerm tests if a length-n integer vector is a valid permutation vector. asPerm coerces a length-m transposition vector to a length-n permutation vector, where m <= n.

Usage

invertPerm(p, off = 1L, ioff = 1L)
signPerm(p, off = 1L)
isPerm(p, off = 1L)
asPerm(pivot, off = 1L, ioff = 1L, n = length(pivot))

invPerm(p, zero.p = FALSE, zero.res = FALSE)

Arguments

p

an integer vector of length n.

pivot

an integer vector of length m.

off

an integer offset, indicating that p is a permutation of off+0:(n-1) or that pivot contains m values sampled with replacement from off+0:(n-1).

ioff

an integer offset, indicating that the result should be a permutation of ioff+0:(n-1).

n

a integer greater than or equal to m, indicating the length of the result. Transpositions are applied to a permutation vector vector initialized as seq_len(n).

zero.p

a logical. Equivalent to off=0 if TRUE and off=1 if FALSE.

zero.res

a logical. Equivalent to ioff=0 if TRUE and ioff=1 if FALSE.

Details

invertPerm(p, off, ioff=1) is equivalent to order(p) or sort.list(p) for all values of off. For the default value off=1, it returns the value of p after p[p] <- seq_along(p).

invPerm is a simple wrapper around invertPerm, retained for backwards compatibility.

Value

By default, i.e., with off=1 and ioff=1:

invertPerm(p) returns an integer vector of length length(p) such that p[invertPerm(p)] and invertPerm(p)[p] are both seq_along(p), i.e., the identity permutation.

signPerm(p) returns 1 if p is an even permutation and -1 otherwise (i.e., if p is odd).

isPerm(p) returns TRUE if p is a permutation of seq_along(p) and FALSE otherwise.

asPerm(pivot) returns the result of transposing elements i and pivot[i] of a permutation vector initialized as seq_len(n), for i in seq_along(pivot).

Class pMatrix of permutation matrices.

Examples

p <- sample(10L) # a random permutation vector
ip <- invertPerm(p)
s <- signPerm(p)

## 'p' and 'ip' are indeed inverses:
stopifnot(exprs = {
    isPerm(p)
    isPerm(ip)
    identical(s, 1L) || identical(s, -1L)
    identical(s, signPerm(ip))
    identical(p[ip], 1:10)
    identical(ip[p], 1:10)
    identical(invertPerm(ip), p)
})

## Product of transpositions (1 2)(2 1)(4 3)(6 8)(10 1) = (3 4)(6 8)(1 10)
pivot <- c(2L, 1L, 3L, 3L, 5L, 8L, 7L, 8L, 9L, 1L)
q <- asPerm(pivot)
stopifnot(exprs = {
    identical(q, c(10L, 2L, 4L, 3L, 5L, 8L, 7L, 6L, 9L, 1L))
    identical(q[q], seq_len(10L)) # because the permutation is odd:
    signPerm(q) == -
