Principal component analysis (PCA) has been widely applied to dimensionality reduction and data pre-processing for different applications in engineering, biology and social science. Classical PCA and its variants seek for linear projections…
Principal component analysis (PCA) is a widely employed statistical tool used primarily for dimensionality reduction. However, it is known to be adversely affected by the presence of outlying observations in the sample, which is quite…
Principal Component Analysis and biplots are so well-established and readily implemented that it is just too tempting to give for granted their internal workings. In this note I get back to basics in comparing how PCA and biplots are…
