BIB-VERSION:: CS-TR-v2.0 ID:: STAN//NA-M-89-05 ENTRY:: January 28, 1996 ORGANIZATION:: Stanford University, Department of Computer Science, Numerical Analysis Project TITLE:: Generalized singular value decompositions: a proposal for a standardized nomenclature TYPE:: Manuscript AUTHOR:: De Moor, Bart L. R. AUTHOR:: Golub, Gene H. DATE:: April 1989 PAGES:: 14 ABSTRACT:: An alphabetic and mnemonic system of names for several matrix decompositions related to the singular value decomposition is proposed: the OSVD, PSVD, QSVD, RSVD, SSVD, TSVD. The main purpose of this note is to propose a standardization of the nomenclature and the structure of these matrix decompositions. NOTES:: [Adminitrivia V1/Prg/19960128] END:: STAN//NA-M-89-05
