contents This paper is to study a signal-plus-noise model in high dimensional settings when the dimension and the sample size are comparable. Specifically, we assume that the noise has a general covariance matrix that allows for heteroskedasticity, and that the deterministic signal has the same magnitude as the noise and can have a rank that tends to infinity. We develop the asymptotic limits of the left and right spiked singular vectors of the signal-plusnoise data matrix and the limits of the spiked eigenvalues of the corresponding Gram matrix. As an application, we propose a new criterion to estimate the number of clusters in clustering problems.
