Ling 5702: Lecture Notes 6

Numpy
We can use linear algebra in Python programs using the numpy package:

import numpy

6.1 Matrix and vector definition


Matrices can be defined from Python lists of lists:

hmatrix-expri → numpy.matrix ( hlist-expri )

For example:

print ( numpy.matrix( [[1,2],[3,4]] ) )

prints:

[[1 2]
[3 4]]

Transpose (row) vectors can be defined from simple lists of numbers. For example:

print ( numpy.matrix( [1,2] ) )

prints:

[[1 2]]

6.2 Transposition
Matrices can be transposed by accessing a .T member:

hmatrix-expri → hmatrix-expri .T

For example:

print ( numpy.matrix( [[1,2],[3,4]] ).T )

prints:

[[1 3]
[2 4]]

6.3 Matrix operations
Matrices can be added/subtracted/multiplied/divided using the usual operators:
hmatrix-expri → hmatrix/num-expri + hmatrix/num-expri
hmatrix-expri → hmatrix/num-expri - hmatrix/num-expri
hmatrix-expri → hmatrix/num-expri * hmatrix/num-expri
hmatrix-expri → hmatrix/num-expri / hmatrix/num-expri
For example:
print ( numpy.matrix( [[1,2],[3,4]] ) * numpy.matrix( [[1,2],[3,4]] ) )
prints:
[[ 7 10]
[15 22]]

6.4 Normalization
Matrices can be normalized:
hnum-expri → numpy.linalg.norm ( hmatrix-expri, hnum-expri )
For example:
v = numpy.matrix( [1,1] ).T
print ( numpy.linalg.norm(v,2) )
prints:
1.41421356237

6.5 Diagonalization
Matrices can be diagonalized:
hmatrix-expri → numpy.diagflat ( hmatrix-expri )
For example:
v = numpy.matrix( [1,1] ).T
print ( numpy.diagflat(v) )
prints:
[[1 0]
[0 1]]
