Class CholeskyDecomposition

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable

    public class CholeskyDecomposition
    extends Object
    implements Serializable
    Cholesky Decomposition.

    For a symmetric, positive definite matrix A, the Cholesky decomposition is an lower triangular matrix L so that A = L*L'.

    If the matrix is not symmetric or positive definite, the constructor returns a partial decomposition and sets an internal flag that may be queried by the isSPD() method.

      • isSPD

        public boolean isSPD()
        Is the matrix symmetric and positive definite?
        Returns:
        true if A is symmetric and positive definite.
      • getL

        public Matrix getL()
        Return triangular factor.
        Returns:
        L
      • solve

        public Matrix solve​(Matrix B)
        Solve A*X = B
        Parameters:
        B - A Matrix with as many rows as A and any number of columns.
        Returns:
        X so that L*L'*X = B
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - Matrix row dimensions must agree.
        RuntimeException - Matrix is not symmetric positive definite.
