Improve SVD Application for Images to Reduce Perceived Errors
Problem
Users want to use a more suitable SVD implementation in image processing to reduce perceived errors and improve results, but the current method lacks usability and best practices.
Pain points
- Current SVD implementations in image processing lead to high perceived errors
- Lack of user‑friendly random SVD implementations and related tutorials
- Limited understanding of the shape of truncation error curves and how to control them
Questions to verify
- Have you encountered perceived errors or performance issues due to SVD implementations in your projects?
- Are you interested in using random SVD or other novel methods for image compression?
- Would you like to incorporate reversible preprocessing in your image processing pipeline to reduce perceived errors?

It seems that decreases error curve always has the same shape. Is there a name for this shape? I assume you could sample just a few points and have a good estimate of what the error will be for any truncation.

There are better ways to apply SVD to images than the way its usually taught

Meaningful decompositions have got to be my favorite subject in linear algebra, and SVD is the king of these. Another location this pops up is "eigenfaces", an early form of compression (and correlation) of images of faces.
