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. | ||

where ''S'' is a diagonal ''N×M'' matrix and ''S<sub>kk</sub>'' = λ<sub>k</sub>, the columns of ''U'' (''N×N'') are the chronos and the columns of ''V'' (''M×M'') are the topos. | |||
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. | 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. | ||

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 correlation analyses of multipoint measurements. | |||
By multiplying this expression for the correlation matrix ''C'' with the vector φ<sub>k</sub> it is easy to show that the topos φ<sub>k</sub> are the eigenvectors of the correlation matrix ''C'', and λ<sub>k</sub><sup>2</sup> the corresponding eigenvalues. | |||
