Interface FieldDecompositionSolver<T extends FieldElement<T>>

Type Parameters:

T - the type of the field elements

public interface FieldDecompositionSolver<T extends FieldElement<T>>

Interface handling decomposition algorithms that can solve A × X = B.

Decomposition algorithms decompose an A matrix has a product of several specific matrices from which they can solve A × X = B in least squares sense: they find X such that ||A × X - B|| is minimal.

Some solvers like FieldLUDecomposition can only find the solution for square matrices and when the solution is an exact linear solution, i.e. when ||A × X - B|| is exactly 0. Other solvers can also find solutions with non-square matrix A and with non-null minimal norm. If an exact linear solution exists it is also the minimal norm solution.

Method Detail

solve

FieldVector<T> solve(FieldVector<T> b)

Solve the linear equation A × X = B for matrices A.

The A matrix is implicit, it is provided by the underlying decomposition algorithm.

Parameters:

b - right-hand side of the equation A × X = B

Returns:

a vector X that minimizes the two norm of A × X - B

Throws:

DimensionMismatchException - if the matrices dimensions do not match.

SingularMatrixException - if the decomposed matrix is singular.
