The symmetric sweep operator is a powerful tool in computational statistics with uses in stepwise regression, conditional multivariate normal distributions, MANOVA, and more. This package exports a single function:
sweep!(A, k ; inv=false)
sweep!(A, ks; inv=false)
Perform the sweep operation (or inverse sweep if inv=true
) on symmetric matrix A
on
element k
(or each element in ks
). Only the upper triangle is read/swept.
x = randn(100, 10)
xtx = x'x
sweep!(xtx, 1)
sweep!(xtx, 1, true)
