Abstract

This project addresses computational methods for obtaining singular values and singular vectors of matrices, focusing on the large-scale setting. Strategies of data compression based on the statistical technique of principal components analysis are our main motivation. At first, Lanczos method, which is a matrix-free strategy to determine a set of eigenpairs of symmetric matrices, was studied and implemented. Then, such fundamentals methods were used to obtain a partial singular value decomposition of data matrices, in order to explore practical problems by means of the principal components analysis. In particular, experimental results were perfomed in image compression.
