矩阵的秩和零空间

日期2011-09-14 (最后修改), 2011-09-14 (创建)

以下模块,rank_nullspace.py,提供了 rank() 和 nullspace() 函数。(注意,!NumPy 已经提供了 matrix_rank() 函数;这里给出的函数允许指定绝对容差和相对容差。)

rank_nullspace.py

In [ ]
#!python
import numpy as np
from numpy.linalg import svd


def rank(A, atol=1e-13, rtol=0):
    """Estimate the rank (i.e. the dimension of the nullspace) of a matrix.

    The algorithm used by this function is based on the singular value
    decomposition of `A`.

    Parameters
    ----------
    A : ndarray
        A should be at most 2-D.  A 1-D array with length n will be treated
        as a 2-D with shape (1, n)
    atol : float
        The absolute tolerance for a zero singular value.  Singular values
        smaller than `atol` are considered to be zero.
    rtol : float
        The relative tolerance.  Singular values less than rtol*smax are
        considered to be zero, where smax is the largest singular value.

    If both `atol` and `rtol` are positive, the combined tolerance is the
    maximum of the two; that is::
        tol = max(atol, rtol * smax)
    Singular values smaller than `tol` are considered to be zero.

    Return value
    ------------
    r : int
        The estimated rank of the matrix.

    See also
    --------
    numpy.linalg.matrix_rank
        matrix_rank is basically the same as this function, but it does not
        provide the option of the absolute tolerance.
    """

    A = np.atleast_2d(A)
    s = svd(A, compute_uv=False)
    tol = max(atol, rtol * s[0])
    rank = int((s >= tol).sum())
    return rank


def nullspace(A, atol=1e-13, rtol=0):
    """Compute an approximate basis for the nullspace of A.

    The algorithm used by this function is based on the singular value
    decomposition of `A`.

    Parameters
    ----------
    A : ndarray
        A should be at most 2-D.  A 1-D array with length k will be treated
        as a 2-D with shape (1, k)
    atol : float
        The absolute tolerance for a zero singular value.  Singular values
        smaller than `atol` are considered to be zero.
    rtol : float
        The relative tolerance.  Singular values less than rtol*smax are
        considered to be zero, where smax is the largest singular value.

    If both `atol` and `rtol` are positive, the combined tolerance is the
    maximum of the two; that is::
        tol = max(atol, rtol * smax)
    Singular values smaller than `tol` are considered to be zero.

    Return value
    ------------
    ns : ndarray
        If `A` is an array with shape (m, k), then `ns` will be an array
        with shape (k, n), where n is the estimated dimension of the
        nullspace of `A`.  The columns of `ns` are a basis for the
        nullspace; each element in numpy.dot(A, ns) will be approximately
        zero.
    """

    A = np.atleast_2d(A)
    u, s, vh = svd(A)
    tol = max(atol, rtol * s[0])
    nnz = (s >= tol).sum()
    ns = vh[nnz:].conj().T
    return ns

这是一个演示脚本。

In [ ]
#!python
import numpy as np

from rank_nullspace import rank, nullspace


def checkit(a):
    print "a:"
    print a
    r = rank(a)
    print "rank is", r
    ns = nullspace(a)
    print "nullspace:"
    print ns
    if ns.size > 0:
        res = np.abs(np.dot(a, ns)).max()
        print "max residual is", res


print "-"*25

a = np.array([[1.0, 2.0, 3.0], [4.0, 5.0, 6.0], [7.0, 8.0, 9.0]])
checkit(a)

print "-"*25

a = np.array([[0.0, 2.0, 3.0], [4.0, 5.0, 6.0], [7.0, 8.0, 9.0]])
checkit(a)

print "-"*25

a = np.array([[0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0], [1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0]])
checkit(a)

print "-"*25

a = np.array([[1.0,   1.0j,   2.0+2.0j],
              [1.0j, -1.0,   -2.0+2.0j],
              [0.5,   0.5j,   1.0+1.0j]])
checkit(a)

print "-"*25
