Exploratory factor and principal component analyses: some new aspects
Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) are popular techniques for simplifying presentation of, and investigating structure of, an (n×p) data matrix. However, these fundamentally different techniques are frequently confused, and the differences between them are obscured, because they give similar results in some practical cases. We therefore investigate conditio...
متن کاملOptimal Solutions for Sparse Principal Component Analysis
Given a sample covariance matrix, we examine the problem of maximizing the variance explained by a linear combination of the input variables while constraining the number of nonzero coefficients in this combination. This is known as sparse principal component analysis and has a wide array of applications in machine learning and engineering. We formulate a new semidefinite relaxation to this pro...
متن کاملBiostatistics 302. Principal component and factor analysis.
Consider the situation where a researcher wants to determine the predictors for the fitness level (yes/no) to be assessed by treadmill by collecting the variables (Table I) of 50 subjects. Unfortunately the treadmill machine in the air-con room has broken down (the participants do not want to run in the hot sun!), and no assessment of fitness could be carried out. What could be done to analyse ...
متن کاملPrincipal component analysis and exploratory factor analysis.
In this paper we compare and contrast the objectives of principal component analysis and exploratory factor analysis. This is done through consideration of nine examples. Basic theory is presented in appendices. As well as covering the standard material, we also describe a number of recent developments. As an alternative to factor analysis, it is pointed out that in some cases it may be useful ...
متن کاملPrincipal Component, Independent Component and Parallel Factor Analysis
This talk is an introduction to Independent Component Analysis (ICA) and Parallel Factor Analysis (PARAFAC), the way they are related and their links with Principal Component Analysis (PCA). PCA is now a standard technique for the analysis of two-way multivariate data, i.e., data available in matrix format. However, principal components are subject to rotational in-variance. By imposing statist...
