L14 – Principal Components

Feature Extraction for Signal Representation
Principal Components

• Principal component analysis is a classical statistical
technique that eliminates correlation among variables and is
can be used to reduce data dimensionality for

– Visualization

– Data compression (transform coding)

– Dimension reduction prior to classification

• The method is covariance-based and doesn’t “know” about
higher order correlation in the data.

• We’ll look at classic treatment, and a probabilistic
interpretation.

Eigenvectors and Eigenvalues of Covariance

The covariance matrix of n-dimensional random

variables x is a real, symmetric matrix. So there’s a

complete set of orthonormal eigenvectors that form a

spanning set (complete basis) for Rn

The two definitions of positive semi-definite

and

are equivalent.

Usually, unless there is a strict linear constraint in the system,

the covariance is positive-definite

5

Zero Eigenvalues,
Singularities, and Correlations

To get a zero eigenvalue, it must be true that the corresponding

eigenvector is in the null space

and hence the covariance is singular. A reflection of this is that the

determinant vanishes

Geometrically, we get a singular covariance if the data has zero

spread along

Consequently, some components

of x are perfectly correlated, and the

data are on an n-1 dimensional

(or smaller) sub-space.

Correlations in Real Data

In real data, components are almost never perfectly correlated.

However, high dimensional data often has many strongly correlated

components. This is reflected in the eigenvalue spectrum of the

covariance having some very small (but non-zero) eigenvalues.

Here’s the eigenvalue spectrum of the ‘m’ phoneme data.

Correlations in Real Data

Here’s the covariance eigenspectrum for 8×8 blocks (64-dim

vectors) of pixel intensities from a grayscale image (4096

vectors) – note log scale!

PCA
Transform to basis of eigenvectors:

The y’s are the principal components. Note that F FT = I (the
identity matrix), and

Then the covariance
of y is

Since cov(y) is diagonal, the components of y are
uncorrelated.

(with |V|=1) is

Let’s find V that maximizes this subject to the constraint that V

is unit norm. Construct the Lagrangian

And find it’s critical points by setting the derivative with respect

the covariance. Which one?

The variance is maximum along the eigenvector

corresponding to the largest eigenvalue.

Dimension Reduction

For visualization and as a precursor to compression or other

processing, PCA is useful as a dimension reduction

technique.

Approximate the vector x by its expansion in terms of the

leading mm.

Map from S into x : W s + m has an image in the m-dimensional
hyperplane S. Matrix W is nXm.

Fitting Model Parameters to Data
Maximum Likelihood Estimates

• MLE of m is the data mean.

• MLE of W is

W = U G 1/2

where U are the leading m eigenvectors of the data covariance, G

is a diagonal matrix with entries

where i are the leading m eigenvalues of the data covariance.

• MLE estimate of the noise variance is the average of the trailing

eigenvalues of the data covariance.

Probabilistic Interpretation of
Projection onto the Hyperplane S

• Projection of x back onto S corresponds to a two-step process

– Given x, find the most likely s that generated it

– Then map this s onto the hyperplane by

This corresponds exactly to the projection of x onto the
space spanned by the leading m eigenvectors of the data

spoken of as if they are identical. Here’s the connection.

PCA and SVD: Numerical Considerations

• Whenever you do algebraic operations on a computer you
have to worry about truncation error and its propagation.

If the ratio of the smallest eigenvalue to the largest
eigenvalue (or singular values) of a matrix approaches the
machine precision, you’re sure to be in trouble. This ratio is
called the condition number of the matrix.

• Notice that the eigenvalues of the covariance  are S2. So
the condition number of the covariance matrix is the square
of the condition number of X.

Numerically, you’re better off using SVD than computing the
covariance and diagonalizing it directly.
