“…A nice review of the SVD-based image processing techniques is presented by Sadek (2012). Other important specific applications include image watermarking schemes (Dappuri, Rao and Sikha, 2020;Meenakshi, Swaraja and Kora, 2020;Thakkar and Srivastava, 2017), signal denoising and feature enhancements (Zhao and Jia, 2017), audio watermarking (Özer, Sankur and Memon, 2005;Rezaei and Khalili, 2019), sound source localization (Grondin and Glass, 2019a,b), sound recovery techniques (Zhang et al, 2016), etc. Moreover, SVD is recently being used extensively to solve different problems in bioinformatics, which include the analysis of protein functional associations (Franceschini et al, 2016), clustering for gene expression analysis (Horn and Axel, 2003;Liang, 2007;Bustamam, Formalidin and Siswantining, 2018), protein coding region prediction (Das, Das and Nanda, 2017), etc.…”
