For example, if V is an m × n matrix, W is an m × p matrix, and H is a p × n matrix then p can be significantly less than both m and n. Here is an example based on a text-mining application: Let the input matrix (the matrix to be factored) be V with 10000 rows and 500 columns where words are in rows and documents are in columns.
Excel maintains 15 figures in its numbers, but they are not always accurate; mathematically, the bottom line should be the same as the top line, in 'fp-math' the step '1 + 1/9000' leads to a rounding up as the first bit of the 14 bit tail '10111000110010' of the mantissa falling off the table when adding 1 is a '1', this up-rounding is not undone when subtracting the 1 again, since there is no ...
For many problems in applied linear algebra, it is useful to adopt the perspective of a matrix as being a concatenation of column vectors. For example, when solving the linear system =, rather than understanding x as the product of with b, it is helpful to think of x as the vector of coefficients in the linear expansion of b in the basis formed by the columns of A.
Time series of the Tent map for the parameter m=2.0 which shows numerical error: "the plot of time series (plot of x variable with respect to number of iterations) stops fluctuating and no values are observed after n=50". Parameter m= 2.0, initial point is random.
With a pure quadratic function the minimum is reached within N iterations (excepting roundoff error), but a non-quadratic function will make slower progress. Subsequent search directions lose conjugacy requiring the search direction to be reset to the steepest descent direction at least every N iterations, or sooner if progress stops.
In Stata, the command newey produces Newey–West standard errors for coefficients estimated by OLS regression. [13] In MATLAB, the command hac in the Econometrics toolbox produces the Newey–West estimator (among others). [14] In Python, the statsmodels [15] module includes functions for the covariance matrix using Newey–West.
Non-sampling errors in survey estimates can arise from: [3] Coverage errors, such as failure to accurately represent all population units in the sample, or the inability to obtain information about all sample cases; Response errors by respondents due for example to definitional differences, misunderstandings, or deliberate misreporting;
Missing values in a lookup table used by the FPU's floating-point division algorithm led to calculations acquiring small errors. While these errors would in most use-cases only occur rarely and result in small deviations from the correct output values, in certain circumstances the errors can occur frequently and lead to more significant deviations.
