31. He also developed and named the principal component analysis method widely used statistics and computer science. 32. The indexes have been created by the Australian Bureau of Statistics, the national principal component analysis . 33. For a second analysis, the scores from both cultures were combined, and principal components analysis was used. 34. This problem is a shortcoming of principal component analysis in general, not just of M-SSA in particular. 35. The higher dimensionality of the descriptor is reduced to 64 through principal components analysis ( PCA ). 36. Factor analysis is related to principal component analysis ( PCA ), but the two are not identical. 37. Examples are principal component analysis and discriminant analysis, and the quartimax and oblimax methods in factor analysis. 38. More generally, principal component analysis can be used as a method of factor analysis in structural equation modeling. 39. Factor analysis is similar to principal component analysis , in that factor analysis also involves linear combinations of variables. 40. It is based on Curvilinear Component Analysis ( which extended Sammon's mapping ), but uses geodesic distances instead.
