We show how to efficiently project a vector onto the top principal components of a matrix, without explicitly computing these components. Specifically, we introduce an iterative algorithm that provably computes the projection using few calls to any black-box routine for ridge regression. By avoiding explicit principal component analysis (PCA), our algorithm is the first with no runtime dependen...

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...

background: cutaneous leishmaniasis is one of the most important parasitic diseases in humans. in this disease, one of the responsible organisms is leishmania major, which is transmitted by sandfly vector. there are specific differences in biochemical profiles and metabolite pathways in logarithmic and stationary phases of leishmania parasites. in the present study, 1h nmr spectroscopy was used...

spectral decomposition of time series has a significant role in seismic data processing and interpretation. since the earth acts as a low-pass filter, it changes frequency content of passing seismic waves. conventional representing methods of signals in time domain and frequency domain cannot show time and frequency information simultaneously. time-frequency transforms upgraded spectral decompo...
