The singular value decomposition: Its computation and some applications

Klema, V., Laub, A.·1980·IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control

Abstract

We provide a tutorial introduction to certain numerical computations both in linear algebra and linear systems in the context of bounded arithmetic. The essential characteristics of bounded arithmetic are discussed in an introductory section followed by a review of the fundamental concepts of numerical stability and conditioning. The singular value decomposition (SVD) is then presented along with some related comments on the numerical determination of rank. A variety of applications of the SVD in linear algebra and linear systems is then outlined. A final section discusses some details of the implementation of the SVD on a digital computer. An Appendix is provided which contains a number of useful illustrative example.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
