This results in a dynamic shifts based randomized SVD (dashSVD) algorithm, which also collaborates with the skills for handling sparse matrices. An accuracy-control mechanism is included in the dashSVD algorithm to approximately monitor the per vector error bound of computed singular vectors with negligible overhead. Experiments on real-world data validate that the dashSVD algorithm largely improves the accuracy of randomized SVD algorithm or attains same accuracy with fewer passes over the matrix, and provides an efficient accuracy-control mechanism to the randomized SVD computation, while demonstrating the advantages on runtime and parallel efficiency. A bound of the approximation error of the randomized SVD with the shifted power iteration is also proved.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2404.09276v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2404.09276v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"algorithm-xxx-faster-randomized-svd-with","repo_url":"https://github.com/thu-numbda/dashsvd","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
