    Lecture 4 - Headaches from math - Saving lives with the SVD

    Here we review the mathematics that goes into CT scanners and the inversion of the Radon transform. The approach given here uses the Moore-Penrose pseudo inverse to invert a tall and skinny matrix. We can get a nice representation of the pseudo inverse by using the singular value decomposition (SVD)

    Lecture 3 - How SVDs are used in Facial Recognition Software

    This video builds on the SVD concepts of the previous videos, where I talk about the algorithm from the paper Eigenfaces for Recognition. These tools are used everywhere from law enforcement (such as tracking down the rioters at the Capitol) to unlocking your cell phone.

    Lecture 2 - Understanding Everything from Data - The SVD

    In this video I give an introduction to the singular value decomposition, one of the key tools to learning from data. The SVD allows us to assemble data into a matrix, and then to find the key or "principle" components of the data, which will allow us to represent the entire data set with only a few

    This is an introductory video for my class on data driven methods in dynamical systems theory. We will cover topics including SVDs, FFTs, DMD, PCA, and many other acronyms.

    MHB Solving Overdetermined Matrices Without SVD

    Attached, you will find a formula-based solution for an overdetermined logical matrix pseudoinverse. This simple formula gives the same result as the Moore-Penrose method. Does anyone know of any other overdetermined matrices that can be solved without using SVD methods?

    A reasonable analogy for understanding similar matrices?

    I don't really feel that I understand what it means for two matrices to be similar. Of course, I understand the need to understand ideas on their own terms, and that in math analogies are very much frowned upon. In asking if you know of any "reasonable" analogies for what it means for two...

    Underdetermined vs Overdetermined Systems

    I'm trying to create a model which is of the form y = (a0 + a1l)[b0+MΣm=1 bmcos(mx-αm)] [c0 + NΣn=1 cn cos(nz-βn)] In the above system, l,x and z are independent variables and y is the dependent variable. The a, b and c terms are the unknowns. To solve for these unknowns, I have two separate...

    SVD of a reduced rank matrix still has non-zero U and V`?

    In a given matrix A, the singular value decomposition (SVD), yields A=USV`. Now let's make dimension reduction of the matrix by keeping only one column vector from U, one singular value from S and one row vector from V`. Then do another SVD of the resulted rank reduced matrix Ar. Now, if Ar is...

    The Power of SVD in Data Processing: Insights and Examples

    Hi PF! Can you please tell me why it is beneficial to use SVD in data processing? My understanding is, given a lot of data, if we arrange it in a matrix, we can filter out the important pieces from the unimportant pieces. Evidently, any matrix ##A## can be decomposed into ##U \Sigma V^T##...

    SVD Low-Rank Approximation Algorithm

    I'm looking for a concise description of an algorithm for low-rank approximation via SVD. I've seen a number of articles referring to Lanczos method and finding eigenvalues but nothing going all the way to determining all the matrices involved in the low-rank SVD of a given matrix. Any...

    What are the requirements for SVD to work?

    Dear fellows, during my internship I've stumbled over a problem of analysis. To cut things short some pseudoinverses have to be calculated. For one of them it does not work, s.t. A'*A \neq I. I just wondered about the requirements to find a pseudoinverse. One of the eigenvalues is zero...

    SVD vs Eigenvalue Decompositon (Diagonalizability)

    Okay, I know that if I can't get n linearly independent eigenvectors out of a matrix A (∈ℝnxn), it is not diagonalizable (and that some necessary conditions for diagonalizability in this regard may be being symmetric and/or having distinct eigenvalues.) This is how things are for the usual...

    What is the Geometric Interpretation of the Final Step in SVD?

    Ax = U \Sigma V^T x (A is an m by n matrix) I understand the first two steps, 1) V^T takes x and expresses it in a new basis in R^n (since x is already in R^n, this is simply a rotation) 2) \Sigma takes the result of (1) and stretches it The third step is where I'm a bit...

    MATLAB Complex-Symmetric Matrix SVD with Matlab: Conjugate Relationship Not Seen
