4 Singular Value Decomposition (SVD)
www.cs.princeton.edu › courses › archive4 Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) The singular value decomposition of a matrix A is the factorization of A into the product of three matrices A = UDVT where the columns of U and V are orthonormal and the matrix D is diagonal with positive real entries. The SVD is useful in many tasks. Here we mention two examples.
