A generalization of the Moore-Penrose inverse related to matrix subspaces of C(nxm)

[EN]A natural generalization of the classical Moore-Penrose inverse is presented. The so-called S-Moore-Penrose inverse of a m x n complex matrix A, denoted by As, is defined for any linear subspace S of the matrix vector space Cnxm. The S-Moore-Penrose inverse As is characterized using either the singular value decomposition or (for the nonsingular square case) the orthogonal complements with respect to the Frobenius inner product. These results are applied to the preconditioning of linear systems based on Frobenius norm minimization and to the linearly constrained linear least squares problem.

Normalized Frobenius condition number of the orthogonal projections of the identity

[EN]This paper deals with the orthogonal projection (in the Frobenius sense) AN of the identity matrix I onto the matrix subspace AS (A ? Rn×n, S being an arbitrary subspace of Rn×n). Lower and upper bounds on the normalized Frobenius condition number of matrix AN are given. Furthermore, for every matrix subspace S ? Rn×n, a new index bF (A, S), which generalizes the normalized Frobenius condition number of matrix A, is defined and analyzed...

A generalization of the optimal diagonal approximate inverse preconditioner

[EN ]The classical optimal (in the Frobenius sense) diagonal preconditioner for large sparse linear systems Ax = b is generalized and improved. The new proposed approximate inverse preconditioner N is based on the minimization of the Frobenius norm of the residual matrix AM − I, where M runs over a certain linear subspace of n × n real matrices, defined by a prescribed sparsity pattern. The number of nonzero entries of the n×n preconditioning matrix N is less than or equal to 2n, and n of them are selected as the optimal positions in each of the n columns of matrix N. All theoretical results are justified in detail…

Short-term wind power forecast based on cluster analysis and artificial neural networks

[EN]In this paper an architecture for an estimator of short-term wind farm power is proposed. The estimator is made up of a Linear Machine classifier and a set of k Multilayer Perceptrons, training each one for a specific subspace of the input space. The splitting of the input dataset into the k clusters is done using a k-means technique, obtaining the equivalent Linear Machine classifier from the cluster centroids...
