colcomp
Scilab Function

colcomp - column compression, kernel, nullspace

Calling Sequence

[W,rk]=colcomp(A [,flag] [,tol])

Parameters

Description

Column compression of A : Ac = A*W is column compressed i.e

Ac=[0,Af] with Af full column rank, rank( Af ) = rank( A ) = rk .

flag and tol are optional parameters: flag = 'qr' or 'svd' (default is 'svd' ).

tol = tolerance parameter (of order %eps as default value).

The ma-rk first columns of W span the kernel of A when size(A)=(na,ma)

Examples


A=rand(5,2)*rand(2,5);
[X,r]=colcomp(A);
norm(A*X(:,1:$-r),1)
