- Generalized inverse
In
mathematics , a generalized inverse or pseudoinverse of a matrix "A" is a matrix that has some properties of theinverse matrix of "A" but not necessarily all of them. The term "the pseudoinverse" commonly means theMoore-Penrose pseudoinverse .The purpose of constructing a generalized inverse is to obtain a matrix that can serve as the inverse in some sense for a wider class of matrices than invertible ones. Typically, the generalized inverse exists for an arbitrary matrix, and when a matrix has an inverse, then its inverse and the generalized inverse are the same. Some generalized inverses can be defined in any mathematical structure that involves associative multiplication, that is, in a
semigroup .Types of generalized inverses
The various kinds of generalized inverses include
*one-sided inverse , that isleft inverse andright inverse
*Drazin inverse
* Group inverse
*Bott–Duffin inverse
*Moore-Penrose pseudoinverse See also
