Singular Value Decomposition of Noisy MatricesI am an engineer who makes measurements of a variable over a grid of, say, $m\times n$. Since these are actual measurements, the true values are always corrupted by noise, and what I measure is a noisy version of the true set of values. Let $\mathbf{U}$ be the true (unknown) matrix of values and $\widetilde{\mathbf{U}}=\mathbf{U}+\mathbf{E}$ be the (measured) noisy version, where $\mathbf{E}$ is a matrix of error values. It is commonly assumed that elements of $\mathbf{E}$ are obtained from a zero-mean Gaussian distribution with some variance $\sigma^{2}$. Let $\lambda_{i}$ be the singular values of $\mathbf{U}$ arranged
in descending order and I would like to estimate the singular values and eigenvectors of $\mathbf{U}$ knowing only the corresponding quantities of $\widetilde{\mathbf{U}}$ and the variance $\sigma^{2}$ of the error. Therefore, I would like to know the answer to the following two questions:
