Syntax

  • GAMc=restrshapeExact(k, v, shw, shb)example
  • GAMc=restrshapeExact(k, v, shw, shb, verLess2016b)example

Description

The purpose is to generate a constrained shape matrix in such a way that the maximum ratio between the largest/smallest element of each column is equal to shw and the maximum ratio between the largest/smallest element of each row is equal to shb. Finally the product of the element of each column is equal to 1.

example

GAMc =restrshapeExact(k, v, shw, shb) restrshapeExact with all the default options.

example

GAMc =restrshapeExact(k, v, shw, shb, verLess2016b) Generate 100 replicates of a shape matrix.

  • restrshapeExact with all the default options.

    • two groups and 8 variables 

    k=2;
v=8;
shb=20;
shw=100;
Sh=restrshapeExact(k, v, shw, shb, 2);
assert(abs(max(max(Sh,[],1)./min(Sh,[],1))-shw)<0.01)
empshb=max(max(Sh,[],2)./min(Sh,[],2));
assert(abs(empshb-shb)<0.1)

  • Generate 100 replicates of a shape matrix.

    • shb=1.5;
shw=4;
v=5;
k=20;
for j=1:100
disp(j)
Sh=restrshapeExact(v,k, shw, shb, 2);
assert(abs(max(max(Sh,[],1)./min(Sh,[],1))-shw)<0.01)
empshb=max(max(Sh,[],2)./min(Sh,[],2));
assert(abs(empshb-shb)<0.1)

    Input Arguments

    expand all

    k — number of groups (components). Scalar.

    Desired number of groups.

    Data Types: double

    v — number of dimensions (variables). Scalar.

    Desired number of variables.

    Data Types: double

    shw — within groups shape constraint. Scalar greater or equal 1.

    Constraint to impose inside each group. For example, if shw is 3 the maximum ratio between the largest/smallest of each column of output matrix GAMc will be equal to 3.

    Data Types: double

    shb — across groups shape constraint. Scalar greater or equal 1.

    Constraint to impose among groups. For example, if shb is 5 the maximum ratio between the largest/smallest of each row of matrix GAMc will be equal to 5. Note that shb must be smaller or equal than shw.

    Data Types: double

    Optional Arguments

    verLess2016b — is a boolean which is true if current version is less than 2016b. If this argument is omitted routine automatically checks the MATLAB version.

    Example: true

    Data Types: double

    Output Arguments

    expand all

    GAMc —In column j the elements on the main diagonal of shape matrix $\Gamma_j$, $j=1, 2, \ldots, k$. constrained shape matrix. Matrix of size v-by-k

    The elements of GAMc satisfy the following constraints: 1) the product of the elements of each column is equal to 1;.

    2) The maximum ratio among the largest element divided by the smallest 3) element of each column is equal to shw;

    4) The maximum ratio among the largest element divided by the smallest element of each row is equal to shb. The tolerance of the procedure is 0.01.

    5) All the elements of GAMc are strictly positive.
