A Tutorial on Principal Component Analysis with the Accord.NET Framework

This document aims to clarify frequent questions on using the Accord.NET Framework to perform statistical analyses. Here, we reproduce all steps of the famous Lindsay's Tutorial on Principal Component Analysis, in an attempt to give the reader a complete hands-on overview on the framework's basics while also discussing some of the results and sources of divergence between the results generated ...

Sparse Structured Principal Component Analysis and Model Learning for Classification and Quality Detection of Rice Grains

In scientific and commercial fields associated with modern agriculture, the categorization of different rice types and determination of its quality is very important. Various image processing algorithms are applied in recent years to detect different agricultural products. The problem of rice classification and quality detection in this paper is presented based on model learning concepts includ...

An Introduction to Independent Component Analysis: InfoMax and FastICA algorithms

This paper presents an introduction to independent component analysis (ICA). Unlike principal component analysis, which is based on the assumptions of uncorrelatedness and normality, ICA is rooted in the assumption of statistical independence. Foundations and basic knowledge necessary to understand the technique are provided hereafter. Also included is a short tutorial illustrating the implemen...

Feature reduction of hyperspectral images: Discriminant analysis and the first principal component

When the number of training samples is limited, feature reduction plays an important role in classification of hyperspectral images. In this paper, we propose a supervised feature extraction method based on discriminant analysis (DA) which uses the first principal component (PC1) to weight the scatter matrices. The proposed method, called DA-PC1, copes with the small sample size problem and has...
