sprank
Structural rank
Syntax
r = sprank(A)
Description
r = sprank(A)
is the structural rank of the sparse matrixA
. For all values ofA
,
sprank(A) >= rank(full(A))
In exact arithmetic,sprank(A) == rank(full(sprandn(A)))
with a probability of one.
Examples
A = [1 0 2 0 2 0 4 0 ]; A = sparse(A); sprank(A) ans = 2 rank(full(A)) ans = 1
