Matrix inverse in objective function

6 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi,
I am trying to find the matrix X, which minimizes the objective function. However, I see the following error:
Error using inv
Invalid data type. Input matrix must be double or single.
Error in t2 (line 11)
prob.Objective=trace(R - R*X'*inv(X*R*X' + sigma2*eye(T))*X*R);
My code snippet: (Here, T, N and sigma2 are constants and R is an NxN PSD matrix)
prob=optimproblem("Description","MSE min")
X=optimvar("X",T,N,"Type",'continuous');
prob.Objective=trace(R - R*X'*inv(X*R*X' + sigma2*eye(T))*X*R);

Do not use inv() here. Use the \ operator

Hi, I tried \ operator like: prob.Objective = trace(R - R*X'*(X*R*X' + sigma2*eye(T))/(X*R)). I still get an error as follows:
Error using /
Division of an OptimizationVariable by nonscalar not supported.

Hey,
I understand that you are an encountering an error while running the given code snippet.
The error message indicates that the error occurs because the inv function is being called with inputs of invalid datatype. The inv function only accepts inputs of type double or single. In the given code,inv function is trying to operate on an expression involving an optimization variable (X), which is not of type double or single.
Please refer to the following documentation page for more information on the inv function:

Thanks Himanshu. Is there any way to address this issue in MATLAB?, I do know the analytical solution for this optimization problem, I wanted to reproduce the same using MATALAB's optimization toolbox for my work.

Hi Sai,
I understand that you are getting an error using the "inv" function.
The error you receive is because the "inv" function accepts matrix of data type single or double as argument, but it seems your "X*R*X' + sigma2*eye(T)" expression is not of the correct type.
To fix this issue, you can explicitly convert the matrix to the desired type using the "double" function. Try modifying the last line of your script to :
prob.Objective = trace(R - R*X'*inv(double(X*R*X' + sigma2*eye(T)))*X*R);

Thanks Pratyush, I tried this. I get a new error: "Error using double
Conversion to double from optim.problemdef.OptimizationExpression is not possible."
