The n values of that satisfy the equation are the eigenvalues, and the corresponding values of x are the right eigenvectors. Where A is an n-by- n matrix, x is a length n column vector, and is a scalar. Remarks The eigenvalue problem is to determine the nontrivial solutions of the equation: The eigenvectors are scaled so that the norm of each is 1.0.

Produces a diagonal matrix D of generalized eigenvalues and a full matrix V whose columns are the corresponding eigenvectors so that A* V = B* V* D. Returns a vector containing the generalized eigenvalues, if A and B are square matrices. See the balance function for more details. However, if a matrix contains small elements that are really due to roundoff error, balancing may scale them up to make them as significant as the other elements of the original matrix, leading to incorrect eigenvectors. Ordinarily, balancing improves the conditioning of the input matrix, enabling more accurate computation of the eigenvectors and eigenvalues. Use = eig(A') W = W' to compute the left eigenvectors, which satisfyįinds eigenvalues and eigenvectors without a preliminary balancing step.
Matrix V is the modal matrix-its columns are the eigenvectors of A. Matrix D is the canonical form of A-a diagonal matrix with A's eigenvalues on the main diagonal. Produces matrices of eigenvalues ( D) and eigenvectors ( V) of matrix A, so that A* V = V* D. Returns a vector of the eigenvalues of matrix A. That way if you get an eigenvector that does not follow this rule, you multiply it by -1 to flip the sign.Eig (MATLAB Function Reference) MATLAB Function Reference To get consistent results, one usually adopts a convention of requiring that the first element in each eigenvector be of a certain sign. I get very similar results (ignoring minor floating-point errors): > norm(A - U*S*V') % eigenvectors of A*A' are the same as the left-singular vectors % eigenvectors of A'*A are the same as the right-singular vectors Note that svd and eig return results in different order (one sorted high to low, the other in reverse): % some random matrix Now as you know, SVD and eigendecomposition are related. MATLAB chooses to normalize the eigenvectors to have a norm of 1.0, the sign is arbitrary:įor eig(A), the eigenvectors are scaled so that the norm of each is 1.0.įor eig(A,B), eig(A,'nobalance'), and eig(A,B,flag), the eigenvectors are not normalized This is clear given the definition of an eigenvector: A Multiplying by any constant, including -1 (which simply changes the sign), gives another valid eigenvector. obviously if t is an eigenvector, then also -t is an eigenvector, but with the signs inverted (for some of the columns, not all) I don't get A = U * S * V'.Įxample: for the matrix A= my function returns: U=Īnd the built-in MATLAB svd function returns: u= But some of the columns are multiplied by -1.

My code returns the correct s matrix, and also "nearly" correct U and V matrices. Problem is: the MATLAB function eig sometimes returns the wrong eigenvectors. Where A is the matrix the user enters, U is an orthogonal matrix composes of the eigenvectors of A * A', S is a diagonal matrix of the singular values, and V is an orthogonal matrix of the eigenvectors of A' * A.
I'm trying to write a program that gets a matrix A of any size, and SVD decomposes it: A = U * S * V'
