Hello. Consider the following matrix: mp <- matrix(c(0,1/4,1/4,3/4,0,1/4,1/4,3/4,1/2),3,3,byrow=T) > mp [,1] [,2] [,3] [1,] 0.00 0.25 0.25 [2,] 0.75 0.00 0.25 [3,] 0.25 0.75 0.50 The eigenvectors of the previous matrix are 1, 0.25 and 0.25 and it is not a diagonalizable matrix. When you try to find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors with R, R responses: > eigen(mp) $values [1]

Dear all, I've used the 'prcomp' command to calculate the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix(gg). Using the command 'principal' from the 'psych' package  I've performed the same exercise. I got the same eigenvalues but different eigenvectors. Is there any reason for that difference? Below are the steps I've followed: 1. PRCOMP #defining the matrix

Hi, dear R pros I try to understand eigen(). I have seen, that eigen() gives the eigenvectors normalized to unit length. What shall I do to get the eigenvectors not normalized to unit length? E.g. take the example: A [,1] [,2] V1 0.7714286 -0.2571429 V2 -0.4224490 0.1408163 Calculating eigen(A) "by hand" gives the eigenvectors (example from Backhaus,

Hi, I try to calculate the angle between two first eigenvectors of different covariance matrices of biological phenotypic traits for different populations. My issue here is, that all possibilities to do so seem to normalize the eigenvectors to length 1. Although the helpfile of eigen() states, that using eigen(, symmetric = FALSE, EISPACK =TRUE) skips normalization this is (I guess) not applicable

Hello list, Sorry, these questions are not directly linked to R. If I consider an indefinte real matrix, I would like to know if the symmetry of the matrix is sufficient to say that their eigenvectors are real ? And what is the conditions to ensure that eigenvectors are real in the case of an asymmetric matrix (if some conditions exist)? Thanks in Advance, St?phane DRAY

Dear All, how do I compute the left eigenvector of a matrix? I gather that "eigen" computes the right eigenvectors... Regards, Federico Calboli -- ================================= Federico C. F.

Dear R-listers Is there anyone who knows why I get different eigenvectors when I run MatLab and R? I run both programs in Windows Me. Can I make R to produce the same vectors as MatLab? #R Matrix PA9900<-c(11/24 ,10/53 ,0/1 ,0/1 ,29/43 ,1/24 ,27/53 ,0/1 ,0/1 ,13/43 ,14/24 ,178/53 ,146/244 ,17/23 ,15/43 ,2/24 ,4/53 ,0/1 ,2/23 ,2/43 ,4/24 ,58/53 ,26/244 ,0/1 ,5/43) #R-syntax

Hi, I was wondering if function eigen() does something different from the function call eigen() in SAS. I'm in the process of translating a SAS code into a R code and the values of the eigenvectors and eigenvalues of a square matrix came out to be different from the values in SAS. I would also appreciate it if someone can explain the difference in simple terms. I'm pretty new to both

Hi, How the eigenvectors output by the eigen() function are ordered. The first column corresponds to the largest eigenvalue? or is the last column as in Octave? I'm performing a spatial-temporal analysis of some climatic variables so my matrices are MxN (locations*time)and I'm looking for the leading EOF's. As I have understand the eigenvectors columns represent those EOF's

Hi dear R-users I try to reproduce the steps included in a LDA. Concerning the eigenvectors there is a difference to SPSS. In my textbook (Bortz) it says, that the matrix with the eigenvectors V usually are not normalized to the length of 1, but in the way that the following holds (SPSS does the same thing): t(Vstar)%*%Derror%*%Vstar = I where Vstar are the normalized eigenvectors. Derror

Hi everybody, I have some problems with the function eigen. I have a square matrix and I want to calculate the eigenvalues and eigenvectors. I apply the function eigen and I get it, however when I solve the same problem in Statistica software, I realise that some eigenvectors are the opposite. How can I get the same values? Thanks in advance [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear All i have a little puzzle about eigenvector in the R. As we know that the eigenvector can be displayed on several form. For example A=matrix(c(1,2,4,3),2,2) if we want to get the eigenvalue and eigenvector, the code followed eigen(A) $values [1] 5 -1 $vectors [,1] [,2] [1,] -0.7071068 -0.8944272 [2,] -0.7071068 0.4472136 however, we also can calculate the vector matrix

Hi, If I use the eigen() function to find the eigenvalues of a matrix, how can I find the eigenvector corresponding to the largest eigen value? Thanks! [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear listserv, I am trying to perform a principal components analysis and create an output table of the eigenvalues for the dependent variables. What I want is to see which variables are driving each principal components axis, so I can make statements like, "PC1 mostly refers to seed size" or something like that. For instance, if I try the example from ?prcomp > prcomp(USArrests,

Dear all I am so glad the R can provide the efficient calculate about eigenvector and eigenvalue. However, i have some puzzle about the procedure of eigen. Fristly, what kind of procedue does the R utilize such that the eigen are obtained? For example, A=matrix(c(1,2,4,3),2,2) we can define the eigenvalue lamda, such as det | 1-lamda 4 | =0 | 2 3-lamda | then

Hello all, I was wondering if there is a function in R that only computes the eigenvector corresponding to the largest/smallest eigenvalue of an arbitrary real matrix. Thanks Minh -- Living on Earth may be expensive, but it includes an annual free trip around the Sun.

x=rmvnorm(2000, rep(0, 6), diag(c(5, rep(1,5)))) x=scale(x, center=T, scale=F) pc <- princomp(x) biplot(pc) There are a bunch of red arrows plotted, what do they mean? I knew that the first arrow labelled with "Var1" should be pointing the most varying direction of the data-set (if we think them as 2000 data points, each being a vector of size 6). I also read from

Hello Does anybody know how one can compute d largest eigenvalues/eigenvectors in R, like in MATLAB eigs function ? eigen function computes all eigenvectors/eigenvalues, and they are slightly different than those generated by matlab eigs.

Hi ... Please could you help with probably a very simple problem I have. I'm completely new to R and am trying to follow a tutorial using R for Force Distribution Analysis that I got from ... http://projects.eml.org/mbm/website/fda_gromacs.htm. Basically, the MDS I preform outputs a force matrix (.fm) from the force simulation I perform. Then, this matrix is read into R and prcomp is
