Built-in command

No arguments

Description:

Compute the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of selected symmetric matrices or matrix fields.

If one selected image has 3 or 6 channels, it is regarded as a field of 2x2 or 3x3 symmetric matrices,
whose eigen elements are computed at each point of the field.

This command has a tutorial page.

Examples of use:
