Principal component analysis (PCA) is one of the most popular tools in multivariate exploratory data analysis. Its probabilistic version (PPCA) based on maximum likelihood procedure provides a manner to implement dimension reduction. Recently, bilinear PPCA (BPPCA) model, which assumes that noise terms follow matrix variate Gaussian distributions, has been introduced directly deal with two-dime...

Functional Principal Component Analysis (FPCA) has become a widely used dimension reduction tool for functional data analysis. When additional covariates are available, existing FPCA models integrate them either in the mean function or both and covariance function. However, methods of first kind not suitable that display second-order variation, while those second time-consuming make it difficul...

q-mode hierarchical cluster (hca) and principal component analysis (pca) were simultaneously applied to groundwater hydrochemical data from the three times in 2004: june, september, and december, along the ain azel aquifer, algeria, to extract principal factors corresponding to the different sources of variation in the hydrochemistry, with the objective of defining the main controls on the h...

the principle of dimensionality reduction with pca is the representation of the dataset ‘x’in terms of eigenvectors ei ∈ rn  of its covariance matrix. the eigenvectors oriented in the direction with the maximum variance of x in rn carry the most      relevant information of x. these eigenvectors are called principal components [8]. assume that n images in a set are originally represented in mat...

the aim of this study was to propose a method for improving the power of recognition and classification of thromboembolic syndrome based on the analysis of ‎ gene expression data using artificial neural networks. the studied method was performed on a dataset which contained data about 117 patients admitted to a hospital in durham in 2009. of all the studied patients, 66 patients were suffering ...

herbal water is referred to the liquid obtained from the distillation of medicinal plants. different parts of plants, such as flowers, fruits, leaves, seeds and roots have long been used to produce herbal waters. herbal waters are used as dietary supplements and alternative medicine and are commonly used for flavoring in baking. previous studies focused on the non-volatile constituents of herbs...

in this research work, the frequency domain (fd) of surface geochemical data was analyzed to decompose the complex geochemical patterns related to different depths of the mineral deposit. in order to predict the variation in mineralization in the depth and identify the deep geochemical anomalies and blind mineralization using the surface geochemical data for the dalli cu-au porphyry deposit, a ...
