[ { "comment": { "id": "UgxdoHZn3pilg4Sa9Pp4AaABAg", "text": "NOTE 1: The StatQuest PCA Study Guide is available! https://app.gumroad.com/statquest\nNOTE 2: A lot of people ask about how, in 3-D, the 3rd PC can be perpendicular to both PC1 and PC2. Regardless of the number of dimensions, all principal components are perpendicular to each other. If that sounds insane, consider a 2-d graph, the x and y axes are perpendicular to each other. Now consider a 3-d graph, the x, y and z axes are all perpendicular to each other. Now consider a 4-d graph..... etc.\nNOTE 3: A lot of people ask about the covariance matrix. There are two ways to do PCA: 1) The old way, which applies eigen-decomposition to the covariance matrix and 2) The new way, which applies singular value decomposition to the raw data. This video describes the new way, which is preferred because, from a computational stand point, it is more stable.\nNOTE 4: A lot of people ask how fitting this line is different from Linear Regression. In Linear Regression we are trying to maintain a relationship between a value on the x-axis, and the value it would predict on the y-axis. In other words, the x-axis is used to predict values on the y-axis. This is why we use the vertical distance to measure error - because that tells us how far off our prediction is for the true value. In PCA, no such relationship exists, so we minimize the perpendicular distances between the data and the line.\nNOTE 5: A lot of people wonder why we divide the sums of the squares by n-1 instead of n. To be honest, in this context, you can probably use 'n' or 'n-1'. 'n-1' is traditionally used because it prevents us from underestimating the variance - in other words, it's related to how statistics are calculated. If you want to learn more, see: https://youtu.be/vikkiwjQqfU https://youtu.be/SzZ6GpcfoQY and https://youtu.be/sHRBg6BhKjI (the last video specifically addresses the 'n' vs 'n-1' thing, but the first two give background that you need to understand first).\n\nSupport StatQuest by buying my book The StatQuest Illustrated Guide to Machine Learning or a Study Guide or Merch!!! https://statquest.org/statquest-store/", "publishedTime": "4 years ago (edited)" }, "author": { "id": "UCtYLUTtgS3k1Fg4y5tAhLbw", "displayName": "@statquest", "avatarThumbnail": "https://yt3.ggpht.com/cwJBNZUHoJL8HvoIfkULt2IgNu1LF7AL9cYDqSCTGWvG5lASV_y8LiHkMyVUm5Kqt03TLFUCSw=s88-c-k-c0x00ffffff-no-rj", "isVerified": true, "isCurrentUser": true, "isCreator": true }, "stats": { "likeCount": "119", "replyCount": "8" } }, { "comment": { "id": "UgxXqXdDj8wAqk4zSa94AaABAg", "text": "For someone who is trying to be a data scientist, this channel is the best thing on the internet.
