This paper proposes Shared Component Analysis (SCA) as an alternative to Principal (PCA) for the purpose of dimensionality reduction neuroimaging data. The trend towards larger numbers recording sensors, pixels or voxels leads richer data, with finer spatial resolution, but it also inflates cost storage and computation risk overfitting. PCA can be used select a subset orthogonal components that...

Principal component analysis (PCA) is often used for analyzing data in the most diverse areas. In this work, we report an integrated approach to several theoretical and practical aspects of PCA. We start by providing, intuitive accessible manner, basic principles underlying PCA its applications. Next, present a systematic, though no exclusive, survey some representative works illustrating poten...

This paper describes a novel inpainting algorithm that is capable of filling in holes in overlapping texture and cartoon image layers. This algorithm is a direct extension of a recently developed sparse-representation-based image decomposition method called MCA (morphological component analysis), designed for the separation of linearly combined texture and cartoon layers in a given image (see [...

The plant genetic resources are important, because they have most valuable national basis resources in the each country. In this study, to grouping the almond progenies from ‘Shahrood ’ × ‘Shahrood ’ and comparing them in terms of heritability with their parents, measured on the basis of almond universal descriptor. Principal component analysis (PCA) was used to compare morphological and phonol...

BACKGROUND To investigate the effect of environmental factors such as light and shade on essential oil yield and morphological traits of Moroccan Myrtus communis, a chemometric study was conducted on 20 individuals growing under two contrasting light environments. RESULTS The study of individual's parameters by principal component analysis has shown that essential oil yield, altitude, and lea...

Genetic variation of 36 Sechium edule accessions collected across 12 states in India was assessed using morphological traits and DAMD markers. Eighteen fruit morphological traits (both qualitative and quantitative) were evaluated to confirm the variations in the present collection. Quantitative traits showed major variations with respect to fruit weight (7.85-498.33 g/fruit), fruit length (5.8-...
