Abstract

Given an inconsistent system of linear algebraic equations, necessary and sufficient conditions are established for the solvability of the problem of its matrix correction by applying the minimax criterion with the assumption that the solution is nonnegative. The form of the solution to the corrected system is presented. Two formulations of the problem are considered, specifically, the correction of both sides of the original system and correction with the right-hand-side vector being fixed. The minimax-criterion correction of an improper linear programming problem is reduced to a linear programming problem, which is solved numerically in MATLAB.
