how to preferentially compute vector products rather than matrix products

2 vues (au cours des 30 derniers jours)
When performing a multiplication operation between a matrix and a vector, it seems that MATLAB's default settings are to be executed from the left.
This method has a problem in that calculation time is too long when complex multi-term matrix operations are performed.
Is there any way to change this setting without bracket?
For instance, how to preferentially compute vector products rather than matrix products.
Please, let me know.
N = 5000;
A = rand(N);
B = rand(N);
C = rand(N);
D = rand(N,1);
tic
E1 = A*B*C*D;
toc
tic
E2 = A*(B*(C*D));
toc

I doubt there is, but it's the kind of thing that should probably be handled using a user-defined function anyway, rather than a Matlab environment change. This FEX submission for example attempts to implement matrix products in an optimized order, shielding the user from the details:

"Is there any way to change this setting without bracket?"
No. From the doc page for Operator Precedence: "Within each precedence level, operators have equal precedence and are evaluated from left to right."
However, that statement should say "... most are evaluated ..." as that page show exceptions to the general rule. But mtimes, * is not one of those exceptions.
