GNU OctaveЭто программное обеспечение в основном используется для численного анализа с использованием языка программирования высокого уровня. Octave помогает численно решать линейные и нелинейные задачи и проводить другие численные эксперименты, используя язык, совместимый с MATLAB. Он также доступен как пакетно-ориентированный язык. Поскольку это часть проекта GNU, это бесплатное программное обеспечение в соответствии с условиями Стандартной общественной лицензии GNU.

Octave — одна из ведущих бесплатных альтернатив MATLAB.

Определение, данное на официальном сайте: Научный язык программирования

  • Powerful mathematics-oriented syntax with built-in 2D/3D plotting and visualization tools
  • Free software, runs on GNU/Linux, macOS, BSD, and Microsoft Windows
  • Drop-in compatible with many Matlab scripts

Basic Operations

Elementary Operations

+, -, *, /, ^.

>> 5 + 6
ans =  11
>> 20 - 1
ans =  19
>> 3 * 4
ans =  12
>> 8 / 2
ans =  4
>> 2 ^ 8
ans =  256

Logical Operations

==, ~=, &&, ||, xor().

Note that a not equal sign is ~=, and not !=.

>> 1 == 0
ans = 0
>> 1 ~= 0
ans = 1
>> 1 && 0
ans = 0
>> 1 || 0
ans = 1
>> xor(1, 0)
ans = 1

Change the Prompt

We can change the prompt via PS1():

>> PS1("octave: > ")
octave: > PS1(">> ")
>> PS1("octave: > ")
octave: > PS1("SOMETHING > ")
SOMETHING > PS1(">> ")
>> % Prompt changed

Variables

>> a = 3
a =  3
>> a = 3;    % semicolon supressing output
>> c = (3 >= 1);
>> c
c = 1

Display variables

>> a = pi;
>> a
a =  3.1416
>> disp(a)
 3.1416
>> disp(sprintf('2 decimals: %0.2f', a))
2 decimals: 3.14

We can also set the default length of decimal places by entering format short/long:

>> a
a =  3.1416
>> format long
>> a
a =  3.141592653589793
>> format short
>> a
a =  3.1416

Create Matrices

>> A = [1, 2, 3; 4, 5, 6]
A =

   1   2   3
   4   5   6

>> B = [1 3 5; 7 9 11]
B =

    1    3    5
    7    9   11

>> B = [1, 2, 3;
> 4, 5, 6;
> 7, 8, 9]
B =

   1   2   3
   4   5   6
   7   8   9

>> C = [1, 2, 4, 8]
C =

   1   2   4   8

>> D = [1; 2; 3; 4]
D =

   1
   2
   3
   4

There are some useful methods to generate matrices:

  • Generate vector of a range
>> v = 1:10    % start:end
v =

    1    2    3    4    5    6    7    8    9   10

>> v = 1:0.1:2    % start:step:end
v =

 Columns 1 through 8:

    1.0000    1.1000    1.2000    1.3000    1.4000    1.5000    1.6000    1.7000

 Columns 9 through 11:

    1.8000    1.9000 
  • Generate matrices of all ones/zeros
>> ones(2, 3)
ans =

   1   1   1
   1   1   1

>> zeros(3, 2)
ans =

   0   0
   0   0
   0   0

>> C = 2 * ones(4, 5)
C =

   2   2   2   2   2
   2   2   2   2   2
   2   2   2   2   2
   2   2   2   2   2

  • Generate identity matrices
>> eye(3)
ans =

Diagonal Matrix

   1   0   0
   0   1   0
   0   0   1

  • Generate matrices of random values

Uniform distribution between 0 and 1:

>> D = rand(1, 3)
D =

   0.14117   0.81424   0.83745

Gaussian random:

>> D = randn(1, 3)
D =

   0.22133  -2.00002   1.61025


We can generate a gaussian random vector with 10000 elements, and plot a histogram:

>> randn(1, 10000);
>> hist(w)

Output figure:

image-20190907224934733

We can also plot a histogram with more buckets, 50 bins for example:

>> hist(w, 50)

image-20190907224859815

Moving Data Around

Size of matrix

size(): get the size of a matrix, return [rows, columns].

>> A = [1, 2; 3, 4; 5, 6]
A =

   1   2
   3   4
   5   6

>> size(A)    % get the size of A
ans =

   3   2

>> sz = size(A);    % actually, size return a 1x2 matrix
>> size(sz)
ans =

   1   2

>> size(A, 1)    % get the first dimension of A (i.e. the number of rows)
ans =  3
>> size(A, 2)    % the number of columns
ans =  2

length(): return the size of the longest dimension.

>> length(A)    % get the size of the longest dimension. Confusing, not recommend
ans =  3
>> v = [1, 2, 3, 4];
>> length(v)    % We often length() to get the length of a vector
ans =  4

Load data

We can use basic shell commands to find data that we want.

>> pwd
ans = /Users/c
>> cd MyProg/octave/
>> pwd
ans = /Users/c/MyProg/octave
>> ls
featureX.dat featureY.dat
>> ls -l
total 16
-rw-r--r--  1 c  staff  188 Sep  8 10:00 featureX.dat
-rw-r--r--  1 c  staff  135 Sep  8 10:00 featureY.dat

load command can load data from a file.

>> load featureX.dat
>> load('featureY.dat')

The data from file is now comed into matrices after load

>> featureX
featureX =

   2104      3
   1600      3
   2400      3
   1416      2
......

>> size(featureX)
ans =

   27    2

Plotting Data

Plotting a function

>> clear
>> t = [0:0.01:0.98];
>> size(t)
ans =

    1   99

>> y1 = sin(2*pi*4*t);
>> plot(t, y1);

It will show you a figure like this:

image-20190908153422239

>> y2 = cos(2*pi*4*t);
>> plot(t, y2);

? Это заменит фигуру греха на новую фигуру кос.

If we want to have both the sin and cos plots, the hold on command will help:

>> plot(t, y1);
>> hold on;
>> plot(t, y2, 'r');

We can set some text on thw figure:

>> xlabel("time");
>> ylabel("value");
>> legend('sin', 'cos');    % Show what the 2 lines are
>> title('my plot');

Now, we get this:

myPlot

Then, we save it and close the plotting window:

>> print -dpng 'myPlot.png'    % save it to $(pwd)
>> close

We can show two figures at the same time:

>> figure(1); plot(t, y1);
>> figure(2); plot(t, y2);

Then, we can also generate figures like this:

image-20190908155218094

What we need to do is using a subplot:

>> subplot(1, 2, 1);    % Divides plot a 1x2 grid, access first element
>> plot(t, y1);
>> subplot(1, 2, 2);
>> plot(t, y2);
>> axis([0.5, 1, -1, 1])    % change the range of axis

Use clf to clear a figure:

>> clf;

Showing a matrix

>> A = magic(5)
A =

   17   24    1    8   15
   23    5    7   14   16

It gives us a figure like this:

image-20190908160029068

The different colors correspond to the different values.

Another example:

>> B = magic(10);
>> imagesc(B), colorbar, colormap gray;

Output:

image-20190908160540485

Or, we can program like this,

x = 1;
if (x == 1)
    disp ("one");
elseif (x == 2)
    disp ("two");
else
    disp ("not one or two");
endif

break & continue

i = 1;
while true,
    v(i) = 999;
    i = i + 1;
    if i == 6,
        break;
    end;
end;

Output:

v =

    999

Function

Create a Function

To create a function, type the function code in a text editor (e.g. gedit or notepad), and save the file as functionName.m

Example function:

function y = squareThisNumber(x)

y = x^2;

To call this function in Octave, do either:

  1. cd to the directory of the functionName.m file and call the function:
% Navigate to directory:
cd /path/to/function

% Call the function:
functionName(args)
  1. Add the directory of the function file to the load path:
% To add the path for the current session of Octave:
addpath('/path/to/function/')

% To remember the path for future sessions of Octave, after executing addpath above, also do:
    savepath

Function with multiple return values

Octave's functions can return more than one value:

function [square, cube] = squareAndCubeThisNumber(x)

square = x^2;
cube = x^3;

>> [s, c] = squareAndCubeThisNumber(5)
s =  25
c =  125

Practice

Let's say I have a data set that looks like this, with data points at (1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3). And what I'd like to do is to define an octave function to compute the cost function J of theta for different values of theta.

image-20190908170150862

First, put the data into octave:

X = [1, 1; 1, 2; 1, 3]    % Design matrix
y = [1; 2; 3]
theta = [0; 1]

Output:

X =

   1   1
   1   2
   1   3

y =

   1
   2
   3

theta =

   0
   1

Then define the cost function:

% costFunctionJ.m

function J = costFunctionJ(X, y, theta)

% X is the *design matrix* containing our training examples.
% y is the class labels

m = size(X, 1);    % number of training examples
predictions = X * theta;    % predictions of hypothesis on all m examples
sqrErrors = (predictions - y) .^ 2;    % squared erroes

J = 1 / (2*m) * sum(sqrErrors);

Now, use the costFunctionJ:

>> j = costFunctionJ(X, y, theta)
j = 0

Got j = 0 because we set theta as [0; 1] which is fitting our data set perfectly.

Vectorization

Vectorization is the process of taking code that relies on loops and converting it into matrix operations. It is more efficient, more elegant, and more concise.

As an example, let's compute our prediction from a hypothesis. Theta is the vector of fields for the hypothesis and x is a vector of variables.

With loops:

prediction = 0.0;
for j = 1:n+1,
  prediction += theta(j) * x(j);
end;

With vectorization:

prediction = theta' * x;

If you recall the definition multiplying vectors, you'll see that this one operation does the element-wise multiplication and overall sum in a very concise notation.
