Singular value decomposition T-Shirt

See the singular value decomposition in actions. Start with a picture of Camille Jordan. This is a full rank matrix with 266 singular values. The singular value decomposition provides a unitary basis for both domain and codomain. These matrices are used to assemble the images here. The first images uses the first singular value. The next image the first two, and so on. By the time there are 25 singular values, we have a good representation of the original image. The original image contains 70,756 numbers. The rank 25 representation has 13,325 numbers
