Principal component analysis (PCA) is a classical machine learning technique. The goal of PCA is to transform a dataset into one with fewer columns. This is called dimensionality reduction. The ...

Using the two principal components of a point cloud for robotic grasping as an example, we will derive a numerical implementation of the PCA, which will help to understand what PCA is and what it does ...

Principal component analysis is often incorporated into genome-wide expression studies, but what is it and how can it be used to explore high-dimensional data?

Principal components provide an effective method for reducing the number of variables in large-scale correlation studies. With fewer variables, patterns that may exist in the data are more readily ...
