  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. Varimax rotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varimax_rotation

    The sub-space found with principal component analysis or factor analysis is expressed as a dense basis with many non-zero weights which makes it hard to interpret. Varimax is so called because it maximizes the sum of the variances of the squared loadings (squared correlations between variables and factors). Preserving orthogonality requires ...

  4. Pyroglutamic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyroglutamic_acid

    Pyroglutamic acid (also known as PCA, 5-oxoproline, pidolic acid) is a ubiquitous but understudied natural amino acid derivative in which the free amino group of glutamic acid or glutamine cyclizes to form a lactam. [1] The names of pyroglutamic acid conjugate base, anion, salts, and esters are pyroglutamate, 5-oxoprolinate, or pidolate.

  5. Factor analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factor_analysis

    SPSS also prints "Rotation Sums of Squared Loadings" and even for PCA, these eigenvalues will differ from initial and extraction eigenvalues, though their total will be the same. Factor scores Component scores (in PCA) Explained from PCA perspective, not from Factor Analysis perspective. The scores of each case (row) on each factor (column).

  6. Sparse PCA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparse_PCA

    Sparse principal component analysis (SPCA or sparse PCA) is a technique used in statistical analysis and, in particular, in the analysis of multivariate data sets. It extends the classic method of principal component analysis (PCA) for the reduction of dimensionality of data by introducing sparsity structures to the input variables.

  7. 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 .

  8. Kernel principal component analysis - Wikipedia

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

    Input points before kernel PCA. Consider three concentric clouds of points (shown); we wish to use kernel PCA to identify these groups. The color of the points does not represent information involved in the algorithm, but only shows how the transformation relocates the data points. First, consider the kernel

  9. Modes of variation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modes_of_variation

    In statistics, modes of variation [1] are a continuously indexed set of vectors or functions that are centered at a mean and are used to depict the variation in a population or sample. Typically, variation patterns in the data can be decomposed in descending order of eigenvalues with the directions represented by the corresponding eigenvectors ...
