The time traces ''Y(i,j)'' for fixed ''j'' are usually sampled at a fixed rate; however the measurement locations ''x(j)'' need not be ordered in any specific way.
The time traces ''Y(i,j)'' for fixed ''j'' are usually sampled at a fixed rate (so ''t(i)'' is equidistant); however the measurement locations ''x(j)'' need not be ordered in any specific way.
 
The data are decomposed in a small set of linearly independent modes, determined from the structure of the data matrix ''Y'' itself, without prejudice regarding the mode shape.

The &lambda;<sub>k</sub> are the eigenvalues (sorted in decreasing order), where ''k=1,...,min(N,M)'', and directly represent the square root of the fluctuation energy contained in the corresponding mode.

Thus, the oscillations of the spatiotemporal fluctuating field are represented by means of a very small number of spatio-temporal modes that are constructed from the data themselves, without prejudice regarding the mode shape.

A limitation of the technique is that it assumes space-time separability.

e.g., travelling waves have a structure such as ''cos(kx-&omega;t)''; however, most propagating waves can still be recognised clearly by their distinct footprint in the biorthogonal modes (provided there are not too many): a travelling wave will produce a pair of modes with similar amplitude and a 90&deg; phase difference.

== Relation with signal correlation ==
== Relation with signal covariance ==


The correlation between signals ''j<sub>1</sub>'' and ''j<sub>2</sub>'' is defined as:
Assuming the signals ''Y(i,j)'' have zero mean (their temporal average is zero, or &Sigma;<sub>i</sub> ''Y(i,j)'' = 0), their [[:Wikipedia:Covariance|covariance]] is defined as:


:<math>C(j_1,j_2) = \sum_i {Y(i,j_1)Y(i,j_2)},\!</math>
:<math>C(j_1,j_2) = \sum_i {Y(i,j_1)Y(i,j_2)},\!</math>


Using the above expansion of ''Y'' and the orthogonality relations, it is easy to show that the topos ''&phi;<sub>k</sub>'' are the eigenvectors of the correlation matrix ''C'', and ''&lambda;<sub>k</sub><sup>2</sup>'' the corresponding eigenvalues.
Substituting the above expansion of ''Y'' and using the orthogonality relations, one obtains:
 
:<math>C(j_1,j_2) = \sum_k {\lambda_k^2 \phi_k(j_1)\phi_k(j_2)}</math>
 
The technique is therefore ideally suited to perform cross covariance analyses of multipoint measurements.
 
By multiplying this expression for the covariance matrix ''C'' with the vector &phi;<sub>k</sub> it is easy to show that the topos &phi;<sub>k</sub> are the eigenvectors of the covariance matrix ''C'', and &lambda;<sub>k</sub><sup>2</sup> the corresponding eigenvalues.
 
== Physical interpretation ==
 
For linear systems, the biorthogonal modes converge to the linear eigenmodes of the system in the limit of large ''N''. <ref>G. Kerschen and J. C. Golinval, ''Physical interpretation of the proper orthogonal modes using the Singular Value Decomposition'', [[doi:10.1006/jsvi.2001.3930|Journal of Sound and Vibration '''249''', 5 (2002) 849]]</ref>
The biorthogonal decomposition is also highly sensitive to globally correlated oscillations.
Recently, this property has been exploited to detect Zonal Flows.
