If the answers is householder, then the mathematical form of the elementary reflector used by qr decomposition is. From qr x, it follows that the kth column of the matrix x, is expressed as. The qr decomposition is often the first step in algorithms for solving many different matrix problems, including linear systems, eigenvalues, and singular values. How to generalize this matlab code for householder qr. Unfortunately i havent found a good concise source for reading up on the algorithm.
If a is an mbyn matrix with m n, then qr computes only the first n columns of q and the first n rows of r. Householder reflections can be used to calculate qr decompositions by reflecting first one column of a matrix onto a multiple of a standard basis vector, calculating the transformation matrix, multiplying it with the original matrix and then recursing down the, minors of that product. Specifically, we first construct a householder matrix based on the first column vector of, i. The qr factorization is achieved using householder method. Thevariousqr factorizations in matlab these notes explain what matlabs various qr factorization functions do, in the terms. Qrfactorization qrfactorization to orthogonalize a basis, to determine the rank of a matrix, to compute a basis of the null space of a matrix, to give an orthogonal basis of the column space range of a matrix, and to solve a least squares problem. If m transformation householder or gram schmidt used by the matlab function qr. Demonstration of common matrix decompositions in php.
