  2. Eigenvalues and eigenvectors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigenvalues_and_eigenvectors

    The eigenvalue and eigenvector problem can also be defined for row vectors that left multiply matrix . In this formulation, the defining equation is. where is a scalar and is a matrix. Any row vector satisfying this equation is called a left eigenvector of and is its associated eigenvalue.

  3. Eigendecomposition of a matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigendecomposition_of_a_matrix

    hide. In linear algebra, eigendecomposition is the factorization of a matrix into a canonical form, whereby the matrix is represented in terms of its eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Only diagonalizable matrices can be factorized in this way. When the matrix being factorized is a normal or real symmetric matrix, the decomposition is called ...

  4. Eigenvalue algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigenvalue_algorithm

    Given an n × n square matrix A of real or complex numbers, an eigenvalue λ and its associated generalized eigenvector v are a pair obeying the relation [1] =,where v is a nonzero n × 1 column vector, I is the n × n identity matrix, k is a positive integer, and both λ and v are allowed to be complex even when A is real.l When k = 1, the vector is called simply an eigenvector, and the pair ...

  5. Eigenface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigenface

    Informally, eigenfaces can be considered a set of "standardized face ingredients", derived from statistical analysis of many pictures of faces. Any human face can be considered to be a combination of these standard faces. For example, one's face might be composed of the average face plus 10% from eigenface 1, 55% from eigenface 2, and even −3 ...

  6. Jacobi eigenvalue algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobi_eigenvalue_algorithm

    Jacobi eigenvalue algorithm. In numerical linear algebra, the Jacobi eigenvalue algorithm is an iterative method for the calculation of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a real symmetric matrix (a process known as diagonalization). It is named after Carl Gustav Jacob Jacobi, who first proposed the method in 1846, [1] but only became widely ...

  7. Rayleigh–Ritz method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh–Ritz_method

    Rayleigh–Ritz method. The Rayleigh–Ritz method is a direct numerical method of approximating eigenvalues, originated in the context of solving physical boundary value problems and named after Lord Rayleigh and Walther Ritz. In this method, an infinite-dimensional linear operator is approximated by a finite-dimensional compression, on which ...

  8. Orthogonal matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonal_matrix

    Orthogonal matrix. In linear algebra, an orthogonal matrix, or orthonormal matrix, is a real square matrix whose columns and rows are orthonormal vectors. One way to express this is where QT is the transpose of Q and I is the identity matrix. This leads to the equivalent characterization: a matrix Q is orthogonal if its transpose is equal to ...

  9. Singular value decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singular_value_decomposition

    Bottom: The action of Σ, a scaling by the singular values σ1 horizontally and σ2 vertically. Right: The action of U, another rotation. In linear algebra, the singular value decomposition (SVD) is a factorization of a real or complex matrix into a rotation, followed by a rescaling followed by another rotation.
