ENG5322M: Introduction to computer programming
October 28, 2019
Instructions
You should submit the following through the ENG5322M Moodle submission system by 4pm,
22nd November 2019:
1. Python notebook .ipynb format used for to solve each of the assignment problems.
This can be a separate notebook for each problem or a single file. You will be marked according to the following criteria:
Program correctness 60: Does your program solve the problem given to you?
Program readability 20: Have you written your program in such a way that it is
easy to follow? Have you included appropriate comments?
Testing 20: Have you done appropriate testing to show your program works as intended?
You are given two problems to solve for your project assignment which will be outlined in more detail shortly. The two problems are focussed on:
1. Conjugate gradient method
2. Multivariate least square method
Notebook format
I expect to see you explain your code throughout your notebook both using text and images, much like I have down in the lectures during this course. As a quick guide, the default type of a cell is code, but if you change it to markdown look in the toolbar and then hit shift and enter you will see it become text in the notebook.
1. Testing: You should write appropriate code that performs tests on your program. 1

1 Problem 1: Conjugate gradient method
Overview of task: Write a program that solves equations of the form Axb using Conjugate
Gradient Method. Use this to solve the equation:
1.1 Derivation
4 1 1 x1 12
1 4 2 x21 1

The problem involves finding the vector x that minimizes the scalar function
fx 1xTAxbTx 2
2
where the matrix A is symmetric and positive definite. Because fx is minimized when its
gradient fAxb, we see that the minimization is equivalent to solving
Axb 3
Gradient methods solve this problem of minimization through iteration starting with an initial estimate of vector x0 and then iterate for k computations using
xk1 xk ksk 4 such that the step length k is chosen so that xk1 minimizes fxk1 in the search direction sk
such that xk1 satisfies
If we now introduce a residual
Axkkskb 5 rk bAxk 6
and premultiplying both sides by sTk and solving for k gives
k sTkrk 7
sTk Ask
While intuitively we can choose skfrk as this is the direction of the largest negative change in fx called method of steepest descent, it converges very slow. A better choice is to use conjugate gradient method that uses the search direction

each other, i.e.,

systems where most elements of A are zero. It is important to note that A enters the algorithm only through its multiplication by a vector; that is, in the form Av, where v is a vector either xk1 or sk. If A is sparse, it is possible to write an efficient subrou tine for the multiplication and pass it, rather than A itself, to the conjugate gradient algorithm.
The algorithm requires calculating r, , andif you can work back from the worked example

We have also covered theoperator in the lectures. You can similarly solve for s. d To calculate r, you can simply use
rnormnp.dotr,r
and then use an if statement to see if rnorm is less than a tolerance say 1e5 to break from the loop.
If I have said not to use numpy library function then it means not to use an equivalent function such as np.linalg.solve to cheat which, we already covered in the lectures and act as a one line solution

2 Problem 2: Multivariate least squares method
We want to find the regression coefficients a0, a1,,am for the following equation:
yi a0 a1x1i a2x2i a3x3i amxmi 11
To solve this, let us suppose, we take a case for m2 and add an error term i to our equation: yi i a0 a1x1i a2x2i 12
We can then obtain an objective function S to minimize as:
i a0 a1x1i a2x2i yi 13
2i a 0a 1 x 1 ia 2 x 2 iy i2 14
nn
S2i a0a1x1ia2x2iyi2 15

Minimizing S with respect to a0, a1, and a2, we get:
S 2a0 a1x1i a2x2i yi 16
a0
S 2a0a1x1ia2x2iyix1i 17
a1
S 2a0a1x1ia2x2iyix2i 18
a2
Equating these to zero, we obtain three equations in three unknowns, a0, a1, a2:
a0 a1 x1 a2 x2 y 19
a0 x1 a1 x1x1 a2 x1x2 x1y 20
a0 x2 a1 x1x2 a2 x2x2 x2y 21

Overview of task: The assignment is to use the above logic to find the coefficients a0,a1,a2 for the data given in Table 1 also provided as a tabdelimited text file. The exact solution is y2.1453.11711.4862.
2.1 Hint
To program this efficiently in python, we can make use of a trick. Imagine we get the values of x and y from file, and since we are reading one line at a time, rather than calculating the averages, we can simply maintain the sums by taking 1n out and cancelling it on both sides:
n ni1x1i ni1xi2 a0ni1yi
1 n x1i n x1ix1i n x1ix2i a1 1 n x1iyi 25
i1i1 i1i1 n n x n x x n x x a n n x y
i1 i2 i1 1i2i i1 2i2i 2 i1 2ii
If you can import all the function from numpy library from numpy import , and if you have a variable m as the number of independent variables, and if you can define xzerosm1,m1, yzerosm1,1, and xi0.0m1, then you can populate both matrices x and y in a nestedloop with two equations, xj,kxijxik and yj,0yixij, provided if you have xi01, xi1 the value of first predictor first column, xi2 the value of second predictor second column, and so on. yi is dependent variable last column in Table 1. Finally, you can simply convert numpy arrays x and y to numpy matrix so that you can get the inverse automatically: Xmatx.copy, Ymaty.copy, and AX.IY.
Also, the data file provided is tabdelimited. Look up how to split a string using .split function.
