Sparse PCA (sparse principal component analysis)
Sparse PCA (sparse principal component analysis) is a specialised technique used in statistical analysis and, in particular, in the analysis of multivariate data sets.

Sparse PCA (sparse principal component analysis) is a specialised technique used in statistical analysis and, in particular, in the analysis of multivariate data sets.

Ordinary principal component analysis (PCA) uses a vector space transform used to reduce multidimensional data sets to lower dimensions for analysis. It finds linear combinations of variables (called "principal components") that correspond to directions of maximal variance in the data. The number of new variables created by these linear combinations is usually much lower than the number of variables in the original dataset. Sparse PCA finds sets of sparse vectors for use as weights in the linear combinations while still explaining most of the variance present in the data.

Several approaches have been proposed, including a regression framework,[1] a convex relaxation/semidefinite programming framework,[2] a generalized power method framework[3] an alternating maximization framework[4] forward/backward greedy search and exact methods using branch-and-bound techniques,[5] Bayesian formulation framework.[6]
