如何在 Python 中实现基于 Householder 的 QR 分解？

Question

我目前正在尝试为矩形矩阵实现基于 Householder 的 QR 分解，如http://eprints.ma.man.ac.uk/1192/1/qrupdating_12nov08.pdf （第 3、4、5 页）中所述。

显然我弄错了一些伪代码，因为 (1) 我的结果不同于numpy.qr.linalg()和 (2) 我的例程产生的矩阵R不是上三角矩阵。

我的代码（也可在https://pyfiddle.io/fiddle/afcc2e0e-0857-4cb2-adb5-06ff9b80c9d3/?i=true下找到）

import math
import argparse
import numpy as np
from typing import Union

def householder(alpha: float, x: np.ndarray) -> Union[np.ndarray, int]:
    """
    Computes Householder vector for alpha and x.
    :param alpha:
    :param x:
    :return:
    """

    s = math.pow(np.linalg.norm(x, ord=2), 2)
    v = x

    if s == 0:
        tau = 0
    else:
        t = math.sqrt(alpha * alpha + s)
        v_one = alpha - t if alpha <= 0 else -s / (alpha + t)

        tau = 2 * v_one * v_one / (s + v_one * v_one)
        v /= v_one

    return v, tau


def qr_decomposition(A: np.ndarray, m: int, n: int) -> Union[np.ndarray, np.ndarray]:
    """
    Applies Householder-based QR decomposition on specified matrix A.
    :param A:
    :param m:
    :param n:
    :return:
    """
    H = []
    R = A
    Q = A
    I = np.eye(m, m)

    for j in range(0, n):
        # Apply Householder transformation.
        x = A[j + 1:m, j]
        v_householder, tau = householder(np.linalg.norm(x), x)
        v = np.zeros((1, m))
        v[0, j] = 1
        v[0, j + 1:m] = v_householder

        res = I - tau * v * np.transpose(v)
        R = np.matmul(res, R)
        H.append(res)

    return Q, R

m = 10
n = 8

A = np.random.rand(m, n)
q, r = np.linalg.qr(A)
Q, R = qr_decomposition(A, m, n)

print("*****")
print(Q)
print(q)
print("-----")
print(R)
print(r)

所以我不清楚如何将零引入我的R矩阵/关于我的代码的哪一部分不正确。 我很高兴有任何指示！ 非常感谢您的时间。

您链接到的笔记中有很多问题/缺少细节。 在咨询了一些其他来源（包括这本非常有用的教科书）之后，我能够想出一个类似的工作实现。

工作算法

下面是qr_decomposition工作版本的qr_decomposition ：

import numpy as np
from typing import Union

def householder(x: np.ndarray) -> Union[np.ndarray, int]:
    alpha = x[0]
    s = np.power(np.linalg.norm(x[1:]), 2)
    v = x.copy()

    if s == 0:
        tau = 0
    else:
        t = np.sqrt(alpha**2 + s)
        v[0] = alpha - t if alpha <= 0 else -s / (alpha + t)

        tau = 2 * v[0]**2 / (s + v[0]**2)
        v /= v[0]

    return v, tau

def qr_decomposition(A: np.ndarray) -> Union[np.ndarray, np.ndarray]:
    m,n = A.shape
    R = A.copy()
    Q = np.identity(m)

    for j in range(0, n):
        # Apply Householder transformation.
        v, tau = householder(R[j:, j])
        H = np.identity(m)
        H[j:, j:] -= tau * v.reshape(-1, 1) @ v
        R = H @ R
        Q = H @ Q

    return Q[:n].T, R[:n]

m = 5
n = 4

A = np.random.rand(m, n)
q, r = np.linalg.qr(A)
Q, R = qr_decomposition(A)

with np.printoptions(linewidth=9999, precision=20, suppress=True):
    print("**** Q from qr_decomposition")
    print(Q)
    print("**** Q from np.linalg.qr")
    print(q)
    print()

    print("**** R from qr_decomposition")
    print(R)
    print("**** R from np.linalg.qr")
    print(r)

输出：

这个版本的qr_decomposition几乎完全再现了np.linalg.qr的输出。 下面对差异进行了评论。

输出的数值精度

np.linalg.qr和qr_decomposition的输出值匹配高精度。 然而， qr_decomposition用于在R产生零的计算组合并没有完全取消，因此零实际上并不完全等于零。

事实证明， np.linalg.qr并没有做任何花哨的浮点技巧来确保其输出中的零为0.0 。 它只是调用np.triu ，它强制将这些值设置为0.0 。 所以要达到相同的结果，只需将qr_decomposition的return行qr_decomposition为：

return Q[:n].T, np.triu(R[:n])

输出中的符号 ( + / - )

Q 和 R 中的一些+/-符号在np.linalg.qr和qr_decomposition的输出中是不同的，但这并不是真正的问题，因为符号有许多有效的选择（请参阅有关Q 和 R ）。 您可以通过使用替代算法生成v和tau来完全匹配np.linalg.qr的符号约定：

def householder_vectorized(a):
    """Use this version of householder to reproduce the output of np.linalg.qr 
    exactly (specifically, to match the sign convention it uses)

    based on https://rosettacode.org/wiki/QR_decomposition#Python
    """
    v = a / (a[0] + np.copysign(np.linalg.norm(a), a[0]))
    v[0] = 1
    tau = 2 / (v.T @ v)

    return v,tau

完全匹配np.linalg.qr的输出

qr_decomposition ，这个版本的qr_decomposition将与np.linalg.qr的输出完全匹配：

import numpy as np
from typing import Union

def qr_decomposition(A: np.ndarray) -> Union[np.ndarray, np.ndarray]:
    m,n = A.shape
    R = A.copy()
    Q = np.identity(m)

    for j in range(0, n):
        # Apply Householder transformation.
        v, tau = householder_vectorized(R[j:, j, np.newaxis])

        H = np.identity(m)
        H[j:, j:] -= tau * (v @ v.T)
        R = H @ R
        Q = H @ Q

    return Q[:n].T, np.triu(R[:n])
​
m = 5
n = 4
​
A = np.random.rand(m, n)
q, r = np.linalg.qr(A)
Q, R = qr_decomposition(A)
​
with np.printoptions(linewidth=9999, precision=20, suppress=True):
    print("**** Q from qr_decomposition")
    print(Q)
    print("**** Q from np.linalg.qr")
    print(q)
    print()

    print("**** R from qr_decomposition")
    print(R)
    print("**** R from np.linalg.qr")
    print(r)
