What are some advanced techniques in PCA?

Advanced techniques in PCA include kernel PCA, sparse PCA, and incremental PCA. Would you like to know more about any specific technique?

Can you explain kernel PCA?

Kernel PCA extends traditional PCA by using kernel methods to project data into higher-dimensional spaces, allowing for non-linear dimensionality reduction.

What is sparse PCA?

Sparse PCA aims to find a low-dimensional representation of data while ensuring that the principal components are sparse, which can enhance interpretability.

How does incremental PCA work?

Incremental PCA processes data in mini-batches, making it suitable for large datasets that cannot fit into memory all at once.

What are the applications of these advanced techniques?

These techniques are used in various fields such as image processing, bioinformatics, and finance for tasks like feature extraction and noise reduction.
