Least Squares Problems in Surveying

Description

One of the four matrices from the least-squares solution of problems in surveying that were used by Michael Saunders and Chris Paige in the testing of LSQR

Usage

data(lsq)

Format

A list of class matrix.csc.hb or matrix.ssc.hb depending on how the coefficient matrix is stored with the following components:

  • ra ra component of the csc or ssc format of the coefficient matrix, X.

  • ja ja component of the csc or ssc format of the coefficient matrix, X.

  • ia ia component of the csc or ssc format of the coefficient matrix, X.

  • rhs.ra ra component of the right-hand-side, y, if stored in csc or ssc format; right-hand-side stored in dense vector or matrix otherwise.

  • rhs.ja ja component of the right-hand-side, y, if stored in csc or ssc format; a null vector otherwise.

  • rhs.ia ia component of the right-hand-side, y, if stored in csc or ssc format; a null vector otherwise.

  • xexactvector of the exact solutions, b, if they exist; a null vector o therwise.

  • guessvector of the initial guess of the solutions if they exist; a null vector otherwise.

  • dimdimenson of the coefficient matrix, X.

  • rhs.dimdimenson of the right-hand-side, y.

  • rhs.modestorage mode of the right-hand-side; can be full storage or same format as the coefficient matrix.

Examples

data(lsq)
class(lsq) # -> [1] "matrix.csc.hb"
model.matrix(lsq)->X
class(X) # -> "matrix.csr"
dim(X) # -> [1] 1850  712
y <- model.response(lsq) # extract the rhs
length(y) # [1] 1850
