pvPacksmi#

Purpose#

Packs symmetric matrix into a PV instance with a mask, matrix name, and index.

Format#

p1 = pvPacksmi(p1, x, nm, mask, i)#
Parameters:

  • p1 (struct) – an instance of structure of type PV

  • x (MxM symmetric matrix) – data

  • nm (string) – matrix name.

  • mask (MxM matrix) – symmetric mask matrix of zeros and ones.

  • i (scalar) – index of matrix in lookup table.

Returns:

p1 (struct) – instance of PV struct.

Examples#

// Create PV structure
struct PV p1;
p1 = pvCreate;

// Set up x matrix
x = { 1 2 4,
      2 3 5,
      4 5 6};

// Set
mask = { 1 0 1,
         0 1 0,
         1 0 1 };

p1 = pvPacksmi(p1, x, "A", mask, 1);

print pvUnpack(p1, 1);

1.000 2.000 4.000
2.000 3.000 5.000
4.000 5.000 6.000

p2 = pvGetParVector(p1);

print p2;

1.000
3.000
4.000
6.000

p3 = { 10, 11, 12, 13 };
p1 = pvPutParVector(p1, p3);

print pvUnpack(p1, 1);

10.000  2.000 12.000
 2.000 11.000  5.000
12.000  5.000 13.000

Remarks#

pvPacksmi() does not support the packing of arrays.

The mask allows storing a selected portion of a matrix into the parameter vector. The ones in the mask matrix indicate an element to be stored in the parameter vector. When the matrix is unpacked (using pvUnpackm()) the elements corresponding to the zeros are restored. Elements corresponding to the ones come from the parameter vector.

Only the lower left portion of the mask matrix is used, and only the lower left portion of the x matrix is stored in the packed vector.

If mask is all zeros, the matrix is packed with the specified elements in the second argument but no elements of the matrix are entered into the parameter vector. When unpacked the matrix in the second argument is returned without modification.
