R example

Principal component analysis (PCA) in R including bi-plot.

R built-in plot

http://genomicsclass.github.io/book/pages/pca_svd.html 

pc <- prcomp(x)
group <- as.numeric(tab$Tissue)
plot(pc$x[, 1], pc$x[, 2], col = group, main = "PCA", xlab = "PC1", ylab = "PC2")

The meaning of colors can be found by palette().

  1. black
  2. red
  3. green3
  4. blue
  5. cyan
  6. magenta
  7. yellow
  8. gray

PCA and SVD

Using the SVD to perform PCA makes much better sense numerically than forming the covariance matrix to begin with, since the formation of [math]\displaystyle{ X X^T }[/math] can cause loss of precision.

R example

covMat <- matrix(c(4, 0, 0, 1), nr=2)
p <- 2
n <- 1000
set.seed(1)
x <- mvtnorm::rmvnorm(n, rep(0, p), covMat)
svdx <- svd(x)
result= prcomp(x, scale = TRUE) 
summary(result)
# Importance of components:
#                          PC1    PC2
# Standard deviation     1.0004 0.9996
# Proportion of Variance 0.5004 0.4996
# Cumulative Proportion  0.5004 1.0000

# It seems scale = FALSE result can reflect the original data
result2 <- prcomp(x, scale = FALSE) # DEFAULT
summary(result2)
# Importance of components:
#                           PC1    PC2
# Standard deviation     2.1332 1.0065  ==> Close to the original data
                                     #  ==> How to compute
                              # sqrt(eigen(var(x))$values ) = 2.133203 1.006460
# Proportion of Variance 0.8179 0.1821  ==> How to verify
                                        # 2.1332^2/(2.1332^2+1.0065^2) = 0.8179
# Cumulative Proportion  0.8179 1.0000
result2$sdev
# 2.133203 1.006460    #  sqrt( SS(distance)/(n-1) )
result2$sdev^2 / sum(result2$sdev^2)

# [1] 67.42406 31.81113
svd(scale(x, center=T, scale=F))$d ^ 2  # SS(distance)
# [1] 4546.004 1011.948
svd(scale(x, center=T, scale=F))$d / sqrt(nrow(x) -1)
# [1] 2.133203 1.006460     ==> This is the same as prcomp()$sdev
svd(scale(x, center=F, scale=F))$d / sqrt(nrow(x) -1)
# [1] 2.135166 1.006617     ==> So it does not matter to center or scale

# [2,] -0.0004780211 -0.9999998857

# [1] 67.42406 31.81113.   

# So SS(distance) = eigen(t(scale(x,T,F)) %*% scale(x,T,F))$values
#                 = svd(scale(x.T,F))$d ^ 2

AIC/BIC in estimating the number of components

Consistency of AIC and BIC in estimating the number of significant components in high-dimensional principal component analysis

Related to Factor Analysis

In short,

  1. In Principal Components Analysis, the components are calculated as linear combinations of the original variables. In Factor Analysis, the original variables are defined as linear combinations of the factors.
  2. In Principal Components Analysis, the goal is to explain as much of the total variance in the variables as possible. The goal in Factor Analysis is to explain the covariances or correlations between the variables.
  3. Use Principal Components Analysis to reduce the data into a smaller number of components. Use Factor Analysis to understand what constructs underlie the data.

What does it do if we choose center=FALSE in prcomp()?

In USArrests data, use center=FALSE gives a better scatter plot of the first 2 PCA components. 

x1 = prcomp(USArrests) 
x2 = prcomp(USArrests, center=F)
plot(x1$x[,1], x1$x[,2])  # looks random
windows(); plot(x2$x[,1], x2$x[,2]) # looks good in some sense

Removing Zero Variance Columns

Efficiently Removing Zero Variance Columns (An Introduction to Benchmarking) 

# Assume df is a data frame or a list (matrix is not enough!)
removeZeroVar3 <- function(df){
  df[, !sapply(df, function(x) min(x) == max(x))]
}
# Assume df is a matrix
removeZeroVar3 <- function(df){
  df[, !apply(df, 2, function(x) min(x) == max(x))]
}

# benchmark
dim(t(tpmlog))  # [1]    58 28109
system.time({a <- t(tpmlog); a <- a[, apply(a, 2, sd) !=0]}) # 0.54
system.time({a <- t(tpmlog); a <- removeZeroVar3(a)})        # 0.18

prcomp vs princomp

prcomp vs princomp from sthda. prcomp() is preferred compared to princomp().

Relation to Multidimensional scaling/MDS

With no missing data, classical MDS (Euclidean distance metric) is the same as PCA.

Comparisons are here.

Differences are asked/answered on stackexchange.com. The post also answered the question when these two are the same.
