Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is an outgrowth of the 2nd International Workshop on SVD and Signal Processing which was held in Kingston, Rhode Island, 25-27 June, 1990. The singular value decomposition (SVD) has been applied to signal processing problems since the late 1970's, although it has been known in various forms for over 100 years. SVD filtering has been shown to give better results at lower signal-to-noise ratios than classical techniques based on linear filtering. This explains in part the recent interest in SVD techniques for signal processing. This book is a compilation of papers that examine in detail the singular decomposition of a matrix and its application to problems in signal processing. Algorithms and implementation architectures for computing the SVD are discussed, and analysis techniques for predicting and understanding the performance of SVD-based algorithms are given. The volume will provide both a stimulus for future research in this field as well as useful reference material for many years to come.
