Singular Value Decomposition of Dual Matrices and its Application to Traveling Wave Identification in the Brain
share
Matrix factorization in dual number algebra, a hypercomplex system, has been applied to kinematics, mechanisms, and other fields recently. We develop an approach to identify spatiotemporal patterns in the brain such as traveling waves using the singular value decomposition of dual matrices in this paper. Theoretically, we propose the compact dual singular value decomposition (CDSVD) of dual complex matrices with explicit expressions as well as a necessary and sufficient condition for its existence. Furthermore, based on the CDSVD, we report on the optimal solution to the best rank-k approximation under a newly defined Froubenius norm in dual complex number system. The CDSVD is also related to the dual Moore-Penrose generalized inverse. Numerically, comparisons with other available algorithms are conducted, which indicate the less computational cost of our proposed CDSVD. Next, we employ experiments on simulated time-series data and a road monitoring video to demonstrate the beneficial effect of infinitesimal parts of dual matrices in spatiotemporal pattern identification. Finally, we apply this approach to the large-scale brain fMRI data and then identify three kinds of traveling waves, and further validate the consistency between our analytical results and the current knowledge of cerebral cortex function.
