Principal component analysis (PCA) is a linear dimensionality reduction technique with applications in exploratory data analysis, visualization and data preprocessing. The data is linearly transformed onto a new coordinate system such that the directions (principal components) capturing the largest variation in the data can be easily identified.
Typical choices of α are 1 (to give a distance interpretation to the row display) and 0 (to give a distance interpretation to the column display), and in some rare cases α=1/2 to obtain a symmetrically scaled biplot (which gives no distance interpretation to the rows or the columns, but only the scalar product interpretation).
In multivariate statistics, a scree plot is a line plot of the eigenvalues of factors or principal components in an analysis. [1] The scree plot is used to determine the number of factors to retain in an exploratory factor analysis (FA) or principal components to keep in a principal component analysis (PCA).
In the field of multivariate statistics, kernel principal component analysis (kernel PCA) [1] is an extension of principal component analysis (PCA) using techniques of kernel methods. Using a kernel, the originally linear operations of PCA are performed in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space .
In statistics, principal component regression (PCR) is a regression analysis technique that is based on principal component analysis (PCA). PCR is a form of reduced rank regression . [ 1 ] More specifically, PCR is used for estimating the unknown regression coefficients in a standard linear regression model .
Correspondence analysis (CA) is a multivariate statistical technique proposed [1] by Herman Otto Hartley (Hirschfeld) [2] and later developed by Jean-Paul Benzécri. [3] It is conceptually similar to principal component analysis, but applies to categorical rather than continuous data. In a similar manner to principal component analysis, it ...
L1-norm principal component analysis (L1-PCA) is a general method for multivariate data analysis. [1] L1-PCA is often preferred over standard L2-norm principal component analysis (PCA) when the analyzed data may contain outliers (faulty values or corruptions), as it is believed to be robust .
The 2014 guaranteed algorithm for the robust PCA problem (with the input matrix being = +) is an alternating minimization type algorithm. [12] The computational complexity is () where the input is the superposition of a low-rank (of rank ) and a sparse matrix of dimension and is the desired accuracy of the recovered solution, i.e., ‖ ^ ‖ where is the true low-rank component and ^ is the ...
