projector | R Documentation |
The class "projector
" is the
subclass of the class "matrix
"
in which matrices are square, symmetric and idempotent.
The function projector
tests whether a matrix
satisfies these criteria and if it does creates a
"projector
" object, computing the
projector's degrees of freedom and adding them to the object.

In checking that the matrix
is square, symmetric and
idempotent, the equality of the matrix
with either its
transpose or square is tested. In this, a difference in elements is
considered to be zero if it is less than daeTolerance
, which is
initially set to .Machine$double.eps ^ 0.5
(about 1.5E-08).
The function set.daeTolerance
can
be used to change daeTolerance
.
An object of Class "projector
" that
consists of a square, summetric, idempotent matrix
and
degrees of freedom (rank) of the matrix.

## set up a 2 x 2 mean operator that takes the mean of a vector of 2 values
m <- matrix(rep(0.5,4), nrow=2)
## create an object of class projector
proj.m <- projector(m)
## check that it is a valid projector
