Please see “Singular Value Decomposition” section under 2. Linear Algebra for SVD formulation.

Possible Limitations of SVD:

  • Computational cost scales quadratically
  • Different learning regime than other DL models
  • Bad for millions of words or documents (if used for 3. Word Vectors in NLP - See section “Representing with a Co-occurrence Matrix”)
  • Hard to incorporate new words or documents (if used for 3. Word Vectors in NLP - See section “Representing with a Co-occurrence Matrix”)
