Principal Component Analysis Methods, Applications, and Technology

Description

This book provides new research on principal component analysis (PCA). Chapter One introduces typical PCA applications of transcriptomic, proteomic and metabolomic data. Chapter Two studies the factor analysis of an outcome measurement survey for science, technology and society. Chapter Three examines the application of PCA to performance enhancement of hyperspectral radiative transfer computations. Contents......Page 6 Preface......Page 8 Abstract......Page 12 1.
