Extended Principal Component Analysis
share
Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a transform for finding the principal components (PCs) that represent features of random data. PCA also provides a reconstruction of the PCs to the original data. We consider an extension of PCA which allows us to improve the associated accuracy and diminish the numerical load, in comparison with known techniques. This is achieved due to the special structure of the proposed transform which contains two matrices T_0 and T_1, and a special transformation 𝒻 of the so called auxiliary random vector 𝐰. For this reason, we call it the three-term PCA. In particular, we show that the three-term PCA always exists, i.e. is applicable to the case of singular data. Both rigorous theoretical justification of the three-term PCA and simulations with real-world data are provided.
