We may also keep unweighted coordinates and use the TE norm on tuning space; in these coordinates the JI point is {{val|1 log<sub>2</sub>3 … log<sub>2</sub>''p''}}. The two approaches are equivalent. | ||
In more pragmatic terms, suppose M is the known mapping of the [[Regular temperament|abstract temperament]] whose rows are (not necessarily independent) vals, and W the weighting matrix. In this case, W<sub>''ij''</sub> = 1/log<sub>2</sub>''p'' if ''i'' = ''j'', and 0 otherwise. Then V = MW is the mapping in the weighted basis. Let's also denote the row vector of TE generators g, the row vector of targeted JI intervals | In more pragmatic terms, suppose M is the known mapping of the [[Regular temperament|abstract temperament]] whose rows are (not necessarily independent) vals, and W the weighting matrix.

There are a number of methods to solve least square problems. One common way is to use the [[Wikipedia: Moore–Penrose pseudoinverse|Moore–Penrose pseudoinverse]]. | There are a number of methods to solve least square problems.
