View source on GitHub

LinearOperator acting like a [batch] of Householder transformations.

Inherits From: LinearOperator

This operator acts like a [batch] of householder reflections with shape [B1,...,Bb, N, N] for some b >= 0. The first b indices index a batch member. For every batch index (i1,...,ib), A[i1,...,ib, : :] is an N x N matrix. This matrix A is not materialized, but for purposes of broadcasting this shape will be relevant.

LinearOperatorHouseholder is initialized with a (batch) vector.

A Householder reflection, defined via a vector v, which reflects points in R^n about the hyperplane orthogonal to v and through the origin.

# Create a 2 x 2 householder transform.
vec = [1 / np.sqrt(2), 1. / np.sqrt(2)]
operator = LinearOperatorHouseholder(vec)

operator.to_dense()
==> [[0.,  -1.]
     [-1., -0.]]

operator.shape
==> [2, 2]

operator.log_abs_determinant()
==> scalar Tensor

x = ... Shape [2, 4] Tensor
operator.matmul(x)
==> Shape [2, 4] Tensor

#### Shape compatibility

This operator acts on [batch] matrix with compatible shape.
`x` is a batch matrix with compatible shape for `matmul` and `solve` if

operator.shape = [B1,...,Bb] + [N, N], with b >= 0 x.shape = [C1,...,Cc] + [N, R], and [C1,...,Cc] broadcasts with [B1,...,Bb] to [D1,...,Dd]

#### Matrix property hints

This `LinearOperator` is initialized with boolean flags of the form `is_X`,
for `X = non_singular, self_adjoint, positive_definite, square`.
These have the following meaning:

* If `is_X == True`, callers should expect the operator to have the
  property `X`.  This is a promise that should be fulfilled, but is *not* a
  runtime assert.  For example, finite floating point precision may result
  in these promises being violated.
* If `is_X == False`, callers should expect the operator to not have `X`.
* If `is_X == None` (the default), callers should have no expectation either
  way.

name A name for this Op.
Returns
int32 Tensor, determined at runtime.

to_dense

View source

Return a dense (batch) matrix representing this operator.

trace

View source

Trace of the linear operator, equal to sum of self.diag_part().

If the operator is square, this is also the sum of the eigenvalues.

Args
name A name for this Op.
Returns
Shape [B1,...,Bb] Tensor of same dtype as self.
