The Gram-Schmidt process converts a set of linearly independent vectors into an orthonormal basis — vectors that are mutually perpendicular and each have length 1. It is used in linear algebra, QR decomposition, and machine learning.

공식

uₙ = vₙ − Σₖ₌₁ⁿ⁻¹ ⟨vₙ, uₖ⟩ / ⟨uₖ, uₖ⟩ · uₖ (orthogonalize); eₙ = uₙ / |uₙ| (normalize)
v₁, v₂, ..., vₙ
original linearly independent vectors
u₁, u₂, ..., uₙ
orthogonal vectors
e₁, e₂, ..., eₙ
orthonormal vectors (unit length)

단계별 가이드

  1. 1Project each vector onto already-processed vectors
  2. 2Subtract those projections (orthogonalise)
  3. 3Divide result by its length (normalise)
  4. 4Projection: proj_u(v) = (v·u/u·u)u

자주 묻는 질문

What is the difference between orthogonal and orthonormal?

Orthogonal: perpendicular vectors (dot product = 0). Orthonormal: also have unit length (|v| = 1).

Why is Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization useful?

Orthonormal bases simplify calculations: projections, inversions, and numerical stability.

Is Gram-Schmidt the only way to orthogonalize?

No, QR decomposition and Householder reflections are alternatives with better numerical properties.
