Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a multivariate method which can identify redundancy or correlation among a set of measurements or variables for the purpose of data reduction. This powerful exploratory tool provides insightful graphical summaries with ability to include additional information as well.
This training course discusses the limitations of traditional descriptive tools for exploring datasets with several variables and presents how PCA can:Summarize large sets of data
Identify structure, trends in the data
Identify redundancy, correlation in the data
Produce insightful graphical displays of the results
