Jacobian Matlab

Introduction to Jacobian Matlab

Jacobian is a determinant or defined for a finite number of input functions and the same finite number of variables. Each row of Jacobian will consist of 1st partial derivatives of the input function w.r.t each variable. In this topic, we are going to learn about Jacobian Matlab.

In MATLAB, Jacobian is mainly of 2 types:

Hadoop, Data Science, Statistics & others

  1. Vector function’s Jacobian: It is a matrix with partial derivatives of the input vector function
  2. Scalar function’s Jacobian: For a scalar function, Jacobian gives transpose of the input function’s gradient

We use the Jacobian function in MATLAB to get the Jacobian matrix.

Syntax:

jacobian (F, Z)

Description:

jacobian (F, Z) is used to get the Jacobian matrix for input function ‘F’ w.r.t Z.

Examples of Jacobian Matlab

Let us now understand the code to get the Jacobian matrix in MATLAB using different examples:

Example #1

In this example, we will take a vector function and will compute its Jacobian Matrix using the Jacobian function. For our first example, we will input the following values:

  1. Pass the input vector function as [b*a, a + c, b^3]
  2. Pass the variables as [a, b, c]

Code:

syms a b c
[Initializing the variables ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’] jacobian ([b*a, a+c, b^3], [a, b, c])
[Passing the input vector function and variables as the arguments] * Mathematically, the Jacobian matrix of [b*a, a+c, b^3] concerning [a, b, c] is
[ b, a, 0] [ 1, 0, 1] [ 0, 3*b^2, 0]

Input:

syms a b c
jacobian ([b*a, a+c, b^3], [a, b, c])

Output

jacobian matlab output 1

As we can see in the output, we have obtained partial derivative of every element of input vector function w.r.t each variable passed as input.

Example #2

In this example, we will take another vector function and will compute its Jacobian Matrix using the Jacobian function. For this example, we will input following values:

  1. Pass the input vector function as [a^4 + b, a^2 + c, b + 3]
  2. Pass the variables as [a, b, c]

Code:

syms a b c
[Initializing the variables ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’] jacobian([a^4 + b, a^2 + c, b + 3], [a, b, c])
[Passing the input vector function and variables as the arguments] * Mathematically, the Jacobian matrix of [a^4 + b, a^2 + c, b + 3]with respect to [a, b, c] is
[ 4*a^3,   1,   0] [   2*a,     0,   1] [     0,       1,   0]

Input:

syms a b c
jacobian([a^4 + b, a^2 + c, b + 3], [a, b, c])

Output:

jacobian matlab output 2

As we can see in the output, we have obtained partial derivative of every element of input vector function w.r.t each variable passed as input.

Example #3

In this example, we will take another vector function and will compute its Jacobian Matrix using the Jacobian function. For this example, we will input following values:

  1. Pass the input vector function as [c^3 + b^2, 2*a^3 + c, c^2 + 5]
  2. Pass the variables as [a, b, c]

Code:

syms a b c
[Initializing the variables ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’] jacobian([c^3 + b^2, 2*a^3 + c, c^2 + 5], [a, b, c])
[Passing the input vector function and variables as the arguments] * Mathematically, the Jacobian matrix of [c^3 + b^2, 2*a^3 + c, c^2 + 5] with respect to [a, b, c] is
[     0,          2*b,   3*c^2] [ 6*a^2,     0,        1] [     0,          0,        2*c]

Input:

syms a b c
jacobian([c^3 + b^2, 2*a^3 + c, c^2 + 5], [a, b, c])

Output:

output 3

As we can see in the output, we have obtained partial derivative of every element of input vector function w.r.t each variable passed as input.

Next, let us take a few examples to understand the Jacobian function in the case of Scalars.

Example #4

In this example, we will take a scalar function and will compute its Jacobian Matrix using the Jacobian function. For our first example, we will input the following values:

  1. Pass the input scalar function as 3*a^2 + c*b^3 + a^2
  2. Pass the variables as [a, b, c],

Code:

syms a b c
[Initializing the variables ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’] jacobian(3*a^2 + c*b^3 + a^2, [a, b, c])
[Passing the input scalar function and variables as the arguments] * Mathematically, the Jacobian matrix of 3*a^2 + c*b^3 + a^2 concerning [a, b, c] is
[ 8*a, 3*b^2*c, b^3, 0]

Input:

syms a b c
jacobian(3*a^2 + c*b^3 + a^2, [a, b, c])

Output:

output 4

As we can see in the output, we have obtained transpose of the gradient as the Jacobian matrix for a scalar function.

Example #5

In this example, we will take another scalar function and will compute its Jacobian Matrix using the Jacobian function. For our first example, we will input the following values:

  1. Pass the input scalar function as b^4 + a^3 – c*d
  2. Pass the variables as [a, b, c, d],

Code:

syms a b c d
[Initializing the variables ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’] jacobian(b^4 + a^3 - c*d, [a, b, c, d])
[Passing the input scalar function and variables as the arguments] * Mathematically, the Jacobian matrix of b^4 + a^3 -c*d concerning [a, b, c, d] is
[ 3*a^2, 4*b^3, -d, -c]

Input:

syms a b c d
jacobian(b^4 + a^3 - c*d, [a, b, c, d])

Output:

output 5

As we can see in the output, we have obtained transpose of the gradient as the Jacobian matrix for a scalar function.

Conclusion

The jacobian function is used in MATLAB to find the Jacobian matrix of any function (vector or scalar). For a scalar, the Jacobian function provides us with the transpose of the gradient for the scalar function.
