Abstract:
|
A general asymptotic framework is developed for studying consistency properties of principal component analysis (PCA). Our framework includes several previously studied domains of asymptotics as special cases and allows one to investigate interesting connections and transitions among the various domains. We are really excited about the unification power and additional theoretical insights offered by our general framework for PCA. After seeing the benefit of Sparse PCA when the true model is indeed sparse, we are intrigued to develop a similar general framework for Sparse PCA. In addition to the sample size, the dimension, the spike information, a fourth factor now also plays an important role, the degree of sparsity.
