projection matrix (plural projection matrices)

  1. (linear algebra) A transformation matrix whose associated transformation is a projection.

      The resultant eigenvalues of the angular momentum are independent of direction, but the projection matrices are dependent.
    • 2012, Jan Erik Solem, Programming Computer Vision with Python, O'Reilly, page 91:
      We use the GLU utility function gluPerspective() to set the projection matrix and define the whole image to be the view port (essentially what is to be shown).
  2. (statistics) A matrix that maps a vector of response (dependent variable) values to a vector of fitted or predicted values.
    • 1999, Terrance J. Quinn II, Richard B. Deriso, Quantitative Fish Dynamics, Oxford University Press, page 372:
      Caswell (1989) pointed out that most linear stage-structured models have both primitive and irreducible projection matrices. [] The projection matrix M shown in the table is then calculated as PS + R.
    • 2013, John H. Vandermeer, Deborah E. Goldberg, Population Ecology: First Principles, 2nd edition, Princeton University Press, page 62:
      We then turn to applications of population projection matrices both for natural resource management and for conservation.
