A new modified singular value decomposition method, piecewise polynomial truncated SVD (PPTSVD), which was originally developed to identify discontinuity of the earth's radial density function, has been used for large solvent peak suppression and noise elimination in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signal processing. PPTSVD consists of two algorithms of truncated SVD (TSVD) and L₁ problems. In TSVD, some unwanted large solvent peaks and noise are suppressed with a certain soft threshold value, whereas signal and noise in raw data are resolved and eliminated in L₁ problems. These two algorithms were systematically programmed to produce high quality of NMR spectra, including a better solvent peak suppression with good spectral line shapes and better noise suppression with a higher signal to noise ratio value up to 27% spectral enhancement, which is applicable to multidimensional NMR data processing.

Singular value decomposition (SVD) has been used during past few decades in the advanced NMR data processing and in many applicable areas. A new modified SVD, piecewise polynomial truncated SVD (PPTSVD) was developed far the large solvent peak suppression and noise elimination in U signal processing. PPTSVD consists of two algorithms of truncated SVD (TSVD) and L$_1$ problems. In TSVD, some unwanted large solvent peaks and noises are suppressed with a certain son threshold value while signal and noise in raw data are resolved and eliminated out in L$_1$ problem routine. The advantage of the current PPTSVD method compared to many SVD methods is to give the better S/N ratio in spectrum, and less time consuming job that can be applicable to multidimensional NMR data processing.
