Numerical Analysis II
Singular values are non-negative values that arise from the singular value decomposition (SVD) of a matrix. They provide essential insights into the properties of the matrix, such as its rank and condition number, and play a crucial role in various applications, including data compression, noise reduction, and dimensionality reduction. Singular values are essentially the square roots of the eigenvalues of the matrix product formed by multiplying the original matrix by its transpose.
