  2. Principal component analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principal_component_analysis

    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.

  3. Crassulacean acid metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crassulacean_acid_metabolism

    Other plants show "inducible CAM", in which they are able to switch between using either the C 3 or C 4 mechanism and CAM depending on environmental conditions. Another group of plants employ "CAM-cycling", in which their stomata do not open at night; the plants instead recycle CO 2 produced by respiration as well as storing some CO 2 during ...

  4. Kernel principal component analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_principal_component...

    Output after kernel PCA, with a Gaussian kernel. Note in particular that the first principal component is enough to distinguish the three different groups, which is impossible using only linear PCA, because linear PCA operates only in the given (in this case two-dimensional) space, in which these concentric point clouds are not linearly separable.

  5. Principal component regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principal_component_regression

    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 .

  6. Robust principal component analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robust_principal_component...

    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 ...

  7. Metabolomics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolomics

    In plant-based metabolomics, it is common to refer to "primary" and "secondary" metabolites. [3] A primary metabolite is directly involved in the normal growth, development, and reproduction. A secondary metabolite is not directly involved in those processes, but usually has important ecological function.

  8. Functional principal component analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_principal...

    In implementations, FPCA uses a PCA step. However, PCA and FPCA differ in some critical aspects. First, the order of multivariate data in PCA can be permuted, which has no effect on the analysis, but the order of functional data carries time or space information and cannot be reordered. Second, the spacing of observations in FPCA matters, while ...

  9. Plant secondary metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_secondary_metabolism

    As mentioned above in the History tab, secondary plant metabolites help the plant maintain an intricate balance with the environment, often adapting to match the environmental needs. Plant metabolites that color the plant are a good example of this, as the coloring of a plant can attract pollinators and also defend against attack by animals.
