The following function does not use row pivoting for LU decomposition. Is there an existi开发者_如何学Pythonng function in R that does LU decomposition with row pivot?

> require(Matrix)
> expand(lu(matrix(rnorm(16),4,4)))

The lu function in R is using partial (row) pivoting. You did not give the original matrix with your example, so I will create a new example to demonstrate.

Function lu in R is computing A = PLU, which is equivalent to computing the LU decomposition of matrix A with its rows permuted by the permutation matrix P^-1: P^-1A = LU. See the Matrix package documentation for more information.

Example

> A <- matrix(c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, -1, -1, 1, -1, -1, 1, 1, -1, 1, -1), 4)
> A
     [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4]
[1,]    1    1    1    1
[2,]    1    1   -1   -1
[3,]    1   -1   -1    1
[4,]    1   -1    1   -1

Here's the L factor:

> luDec <- lu(A)
> L <- expand(luDec)$L
> L
4 x 4 Matrix of class "dtrMatrix" (unitriangular)
     [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4]
[1,]    1    .    .    .
[2,]    1    1    .    .
[3,]    1    0    1    .
[4,]    1    1   -1    1

Here's the U factor:

> U <- expand(luDec)$U
> U
4 x 4 Matrix of class "dtrMatrix"
     [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4]
[1,]    1    1    1    1
[2,]    .   -2   -2    0
[3,]    .    .   -2   -2
[4,]    .    .    .   -4

Here's the permutation matrix:

> P <- expand(luDec)$P
> P
4 x 4 sparse Matrix of class "pMatrix"

[1,] | . . .
[2,] . . | .
[3,] . | . .
[4,] . . . |

We can see that LU is a row-permuted version of A:

> L %*% U
4 x 4 Matrix of class "dgeMatrix"
     [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4]
[1,]    1    1    1    1
[2,]    1   -1   -1    1
[3,]    1    1   -1   -1
[4,]    1   -1    1   -1

Going back to the original identity A = PLU we can recover A (compare with A above):

> P %*% L %*% U
4 x 4 Matrix of class "dgeMatrix"
     [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4]
[1,]    1    1    1    1
[2,]    1    1   -1   -1
[3,]    1   -1   -1    1
[4,]    1   -1    1   -1

Perhaps this does the job. However, there is not a windows binary and I can't try it.
