  2. Row- and column-major order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row-_and_column-major_order

    To use column-major order in a row-major environment, or vice versa, for whatever reason, one workaround is to assign non-conventional roles to the indexes (using the first index for the column and the second index for the row), and another is to bypass language syntax by explicitly computing positions in a one-dimensional array.

  3. Vectorization (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vectorization_(mathematics)

    Multiplication of X by e i extracts the i-th column, while multiplication by B i puts it into the desired position in the final vector. Alternatively, the linear sum can be expressed using the Kronecker product : vec ⁡ ( X ) = ∑ i = 1 n e i ⊗ X e i {\displaystyle \operatorname {vec} (\mathbf {X} )=\sum _{i=1}^{n}\mathbf {e} _{i}\otimes ...

  4. Shift matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shift_matrix

    An upper shift matrix shifts the components of a column vector one position up, with a zero appearing in the last position. [1] Premultiplying a matrix A by a lower shift matrix results in the elements of A being shifted downward by one position, with zeroes appearing in the top row. Postmultiplication by a lower shift matrix results in a shift ...

  5. Transformation matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformation_matrix

    In other words, the matrix of the combined transformation A followed by B is simply the product of the individual matrices. When A is an invertible matrix there is a matrix A −1 that represents a transformation that "undoes" A since its composition with A is the identity matrix. In some practical applications, inversion can be computed using ...

  6. Pivot element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pivot_element

    The pivot or pivot element is the element of a matrix, or an array, which is selected first by an algorithm (e.g. Gaussian elimination, simplex algorithm, etc.), to do certain calculations. In the case of matrix algorithms, a pivot entry is usually required to be at least distinct from zero, and often distant from it; in this case finding this ...

  7. Permutation matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permutation_matrix

    Multiplying a matrix M by either or on either the left or the right will permute either the rows or columns of M by either π or π −1.The details are a bit tricky. To begin with, when we permute the entries of a vector (, …,) by some permutation π, we move the entry of the input vector into the () slot of the output vector.

  8. Row and column spaces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row_and_column_spaces

    rank(A) = the maximum number of linearly independent rows or columns of A. [5] If the matrix represents a linear transformation, the column space of the matrix equals the image of this linear transformation. The column space of a matrix A is the set of all linear combinations of the columns in A. If A = [a 1 ⋯ a n], then colsp(A) = span({a 1 ...

  9. Matrix (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_(mathematics)

    For example, a 2,1 represents the element at the second row and first column of the matrix. In mathematics, a matrix (pl.: matrices) is a rectangular array or table of numbers, symbols, or expressions, with elements or entries arranged in rows and columns, which is used to represent a mathematical object or property of such an object.
