	Matrix inversion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Matrix inversion is the following problem in linear algebra: given a square n-by-n matrix A, find a square n-by-n matrix B (if one exists) such that AB = BA = I
		An alternative is the LU decomposition which generates an upper and a lower triangular matrices which are easier to invert.
		Writing another special matrix of cofactors, known as an adjugate matrix, can also be an efficient way to calculate the inverse of small matrices (since this method is essentially recursive, it becomes inefficient for large matrices).

	Invertible matrix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A is row-equivalent to the n by n identity matrix I
		In general, a square matrix over a commutative ring is invertible if and only if its determinant is a unit in that ring.
		To check whether a given matrix is invertible, and to compute the inverse in small examples, one typically uses the Gauss-Jordan elimination algorithm.

	Jacobian inversion
		One of the problems associated with the Jacobian inversion method is the matrix inversion.
		, the Jacobian matrix is rectangular and consequently not invertible.
		When the rank of the Jacobian matrix differs from the DOFs (some rows are linearly dependent), the number of solutions is infinite and the matrix is not invertible.

		Matrix Inversion often leads to the transformation of whole subspaces, or even acute attacks of deja vu.

		I'm studying for a final in a wireless communications class, and one of the topics we're expected to be able to work is the calculation of the minimum mean squared error (MMSE) for an adaptive equalizer, given a certain input vector and equalizer filter structure.
		The formula we are supposed to use in calculating the MMSE thus involves inverting the 2x2 matrix R, and manipulating it along with other system parameters to arrive at a final result.

		The size of the matrix is determined by the number of control points used to describe a part or set of parts to be considered.
		For all of these methods, each computer in the network is concerned with several rows of the matrix or, in the case very small computers, part of a row.
		The size of the matrix and the speed and type of network are all highly important in determining the best algorithm for a given situation.
