Numerical Algorithms 0 ( 1999 ) ? { ? 1 Modi ed moments and matrix

In the scalar case, computation of recurrence coeecients of polynomials orthogonal with respect to a nonnegative measure is done via modiied Chebyshev algorithm. Using the concept of matrix biorthogonality, we extend this algorithm to the vector case.
