| linalg_svd {torch} | R Documentation |
Computes the singular value decomposition (SVD) of a matrix.
Description
Letting \mathbb{K} be \mathbb{R} or \mathbb{C},
the full SVD of a matrix
A \in \mathbb{K}^{m \times n}, if k = min(m,n), is defined as
Usage
linalg_svd(A, full_matrices = TRUE)
Arguments
A |
(Tensor): tensor of shape |
full_matrices |
(bool, optional): controls whether to compute the full or reduced
SVD, and consequently, the shape of the returned tensors |

where \operatorname{diag}(S) \in \mathbb{K}^{m \times n},
V^{H} is the conjugate transpose when V is complex, and the transpose when V is real-valued.
The matrices U, V (and thus V^{H}) are orthogonal in the real case, and unitary in the complex case.
When m > n (resp. m < n) we can drop the last m - n (resp. n - m) columns of U (resp. V) to form the reduced SVD:

where \operatorname{diag}(S) \in \mathbb{K}^{k \times k}.
In this case, U and V also have orthonormal columns.
Supports input of float, double, cfloat and cdouble dtypes.
Also supports batches of matrices, and if A is a batch of matrices then
the output has the same batch dimensions.
The returned decomposition is a named tuple (U, S, V)
which corresponds to U, S, V^{H} above.
The singular values are returned in descending order.
The parameter full_matrices chooses between the full (default) and reduced SVD.
Value
A list (U, S, V) which corresponds to U, S, V^{H} above.
S will always be real-valued, even when A is complex.
It will also be ordered in descending order.
U and V will have the same dtype as A. The left / right singular vectors will be given by
the columns of U and the rows of V respectively.
Warnings
The returned tensors U and V are not unique, nor are they continuous with
respect to A.
Due to this lack of uniqueness, different hardware and software may compute
different singular vectors.
This non-uniqueness is caused by the fact that multiplying any pair of singular
vectors u_k, v_k by -1 in the real case or by
e^{i \phi}, \phi \in \mathbb{R} in the complex case produces another two
valid singular vectors of the matrix.
This non-uniqueness problem is even worse when the matrix has repeated singular values.
In this case, one may multiply the associated singular vectors of U and V spanning
the subspace by a rotation matrix and the resulting vectors will span the same subspace.
Gradients computed using U or V will only be finite when
A does not have zero as a singular value or repeated singular values.
Furthermore, if the distance between any two singular values is close to zero,
the gradient will be numerically unstable, as it depends on the singular values
\sigma_i through the computation of
\frac{1}{\min_{i \neq j} \sigma_i^2 - \sigma_j^2}.
The gradient will also be numerically unstable when A has small singular
values, as it also depends on the computaiton of \frac{1}{\sigma_i}.
Note
When full_matrices=TRUE, the gradients with respect to U[..., :, min(m, n):]
and Vh[..., min(m, n):, :] will be ignored, as those vectors can be arbitrary bases
of the corresponding subspaces.
