Thorsten is right. There is a direct formula for computing the Moore-Penrose inverse using the singular value composition of a matrix. This is incorporated in the following: mpinv <- function(A, eps = 1e-13) { s <- svd(A) e <- s$d e[e > eps] <- 1/e[e > eps] return(s$v %*% diag(e) %*% t(s$u)) } Hope it helps. Dietrich

I am using the ginv function from MASS and have run across this problem that I do not understand. If I define the matrix A as below, its g-inverse does not satisfy the Moore-Penrose condition A %*% ginv(A) %*% A = A. The matrix A is X'WX in a quadratic regression using some very large dollar values. The much simpler matrix B does satisfy the MP condition. Am I doing something wrong? Is

Dear R-devel: I could use some advice about matrix calculations and steps that might make for faster computation of generalized inverses. It appears in some projects there is a bottleneck at the use of svd in calculation of generalized inverses. Here's some Rprof output I need to understand. > summaryRprof("Amelia.out") $by.self self.time self.pct

?ginv provides 'Modern Applied Statistics with S' (MASS), 3rd, by Venables and Ripley as the sole reference. I happen to have this book (4th ed) on loan from our library, and as far as I can see, ginv is mentioned there twice, and it is *used*, not *explained* in any way. (It is used on p. 148 in the 4th edition.) ginv does not appear in the index of MASS. ginv is an implementation of

I'm rusty, but not *that* rusty here, I hope. If W (=Z*Z' in your case) is singular, it can not have inverse, which by definition also mean that nothing multiply by it will produce the identity matrix (for otherwise it would have an inverse and thus nonsingular). The definition of a generalized inverse is something like: If A is a non-null matrix, and G satisfy AGA = A, then G is called

I cannot find what is the function label for matrix inversion in R. I have found 'ginv' for the moore-penrose in the MASS package, but there is probably a simple inversion operator in the base package. Where can I find it? ____________________________________________ Yvonnick Noel, PhD. University of Lille 3 Department of Psychology F-59653 Villeneuve d'Ascq Cedex (+33) 320 41 63 48

Dear All, While inverting a matrix the following error appears on my console: Error in solve.default(my_matrix) : Lapack routine dgesv: system is exactly singular With this respect, I have been replacing the solve() function with ginv(): the Moore-Penrose generalized inverse of a matrix. These are the questions I would like to ask you: 1. Would you also replace solve() with ginv() in

I'm implementing a function to compute the moore-penrose inverse, using a code from the article: Fast Computation of Moore-Penrose Inverse Matrices. Neural Information Processing - Letters and Reviews. Vol.8, No.2, August 2005 However, the R presents an error message when I use the geninv. The odd thing is that the error occurs for some arrays, however they have the same size. And the R

Dear all; I'm kind of confused with the results obtained using the ginv function from package MASS and pinv function from Matlab. Accroding to the documentation both functions performs a Moore-Penrose generalized inverse of a matrix X. The problem is when I change the tolerance value, say to 1E-3. Here is some output from ginv 195.2674402 235.6758714 335.0830253 8.977515484 -291.7798965

Is there a function in R to calculate the generalized determinant of a singular matrix? - similar to the ginv() used to compute the generalized inverse. I can't seem to find any R related posts at all.

Speaking of optimization and speeding up R calculations... I mentioned last week I want to speed up calculation of generalized inverses. On Debian Wheezy with R-2.15.2, I see a huge speedup using a souped up generalized inverse algorithm published by V. N. Katsikis, D. Pappas, Fast computing of theMoore-Penrose inverse matrix, Electronic Journal of Linear Algebra, 17(2008), 637-650. I was so

Has anyone else encountered weird date behavior with mbox-style folders? I am nearly ready to bite the bullet and convert my UW imap hierarchy (which is in mbx format) to Dovecot. In so doing, I need to convert each UW-specific mbx-format mailboxes to the more portable mbox format, which Dovecot can read. (This is done with the 'mbxcvt' utility that's part of UW.) I am then

Dear All, I've successfully import my synteny data to R by using scan command. Below show my results. My major problem with my data is how am i going to combine the column names with the data( splt) where i have tried on cbind but a warning message occur. I have realized that the splt data only have 5 column instead of 6. Please help me with this!! I want my data to be a numerical

Hi all! I'm sure this must have been asked many times before but here goes anyway. I'm looking for a kalman filter in R for ar(i)ma time series. I'm sure there must be one around but it does not seem to be in either ts or tseries packages? Any suggestions welcome.
