PCA projection and reconstruction in scikit-learn

You can do proj = pca.inverse_transform(X_train_pca) That way you do not have to worry about how to do the multiplications. What you obtain after pca.fit_transform or pca.transform are what is usually called the “loadings” for each sample, meaning how much of each component you need to describe it best using a linear combination of the … Read more

PCA on sklearn – how to interpret pca.components_

Terminology: First of all, the results of a PCA are usually discussed in terms of component scores, sometimes called factor scores (the transformed variable values corresponding to a particular data point), and loadings (the weight by which each standardized original variable should be multiplied to get the component score). PART1: I explain how to check … Read more

Python scikit learn pca.explained_variance_ratio_ cutoff

Yes, you are nearly right. The pca.explained_variance_ratio_ parameter returns a vector of the variance explained by each dimension. Thus pca.explained_variance_ratio_[i] gives the variance explained solely by the i+1st dimension. You probably want to do pca.explained_variance_ratio_.cumsum(). That will return a vector x such that x[i] returns the cumulative variance explained by the first i+1 dimensions. import … Read more

Principal components analysis using pandas dataframe

Most sklearn objects work with pandas dataframes just fine, would something like this work for you? import pandas as pd import numpy as np from sklearn.decomposition import PCA df = pd.DataFrame(data=np.random.normal(0, 1, (20, 10))) pca = PCA(n_components=5) pca.fit(df) You can access the components themselves with pca.components_
