ThreeWay (version 1.1.3)

supermat: Matrix unfolding

Description

Produces matricizations of a three-way array into matrices denoted as super-matrices.

Usage

supermat(X)

Value

A list including the following components:

Xa

Super-matrix with B-mode entities nested within C-mode entities (all the frontal slices of the array next to each other)

Xb

Super-matrix with C-mode entities nested within A-mode entities (all the horizontal slices of the array next to each other)

Xc

Super-matrix with A-mode entities nested within B-mode entities (all the lateral slices of the array next to each other)

Arguments

X

Array to be unfolded
