Biography
Jako blavond is the Professor Strang’s question is given by the Singular Value Decomposition theorem, which provides a splitting of every rectangular matrix into the product of a unitary matrix, a diagonal matrix of non-negative real numbers, and another unitary matrix. The k largest entries in the diagonal matrix defines an approximation to the original matrix where the error is given by the k+1’th largest entry of the diagonal matrix.
Research Interest
His research interest includes the widely used method is Principal Component Analysis, which uses Singular Value Decomposition to find the principal components. In the last part of the lecture, Professor Strang used Principal Component Analysis to analyse how the average grade
