  Calculate the [generalized inverse of a matrix](
  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moore%E2%80%93Penrose_inverse) using its
  singular-value decomposition (SVD) and including all large singular values.

  The pseudo-inverse of a matrix `A`, is defined as: 'the matrix that 'solves'
  [the least-squares problem] `A @ x = b`,' i.e., if `x_hat` is a solution, then
  `A_pinv` is the matrix such that `x_hat = A_pinv @ b`. It can be shown that if
  `U @ Sigma @ V.T = A` is the singular value decomposition of `A`, then
  `A_pinv = V @ inv(Sigma) U^T`. [(Strang, 1980)][1]

  This function is analogous to [`numpy.linalg.pinv`](
  https://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/reference/generated/numpy.linalg.pinv.html).
  It differs only in default value of `rcond`. In `numpy.linalg.pinv`, the
  default `rcond` is `1e-15`. Here the default is
  `10. * max(num_rows, num_cols) * np.finfo(dtype).eps`.

  Args:
    a: (Batch of) `float`-like matrix-shaped `Tensor`(s) which are to be
      pseudo-inverted.
    rcond: `Tensor` of small singular value cutoffs.  Singular values smaller
      (in modulus) than `rcond` * largest_singular_value (again, in modulus) are
      set to zero. Must broadcast against `tf.shape(a)[:-2]`.
      Default value: `10. * max(num_rows, num_cols) * np.finfo(a.dtype).eps`.
    validate_args: When `True`, additional assertions might be embedded in the
      graph.
      Default value: `False` (i.e., no graph assertions are added).
    name: Python `str` prefixed to ops created by this function.
      Default value: 'pinv'.

  Returns:
    a_pinv: (Batch of) pseudo-inverse of input `a`. Has same shape as `a` except
      rightmost two dimensions are transposed.

  Raises:
    TypeError: if input `a` does not have `float`-like `dtype`.
    ValueError: if input `a` has fewer than 2 dimensions.

  #### Examples

  ```python
  import tensorflow as tf
  import tensorflow_probability as tfp

  a = tf.constant([[1.,  0.4,  0.5],
                   [0.4, 0.2,  0.25],
                   [0.5, 0.25, 0.35]])
  tf.matmul(tf.linalg..pinv(a), a)
  # ==> array([[1., 0., 0.],
               [0., 1., 0.],
               [0., 0., 1.]], dtype=float32)

  a = tf.constant([[1.,  0.4,  0.5,  1.],
                   [0.4, 0.2,  0.25, 2.],
                   [0.5, 0.25, 0.35, 3.]])
  tf.matmul(tf.linalg..pinv(a), a)
