Fit PCA

Principal component analysis (PCA). Linear dimensionality reduction using Singular Value Decomposition of the data to project it to a lower dimensional space. The input data is centered but not scaled for each feature before applying the SVD.

Usage:

  1. Start the algorithm from the Processing Toolbox panel.

  2. Select a raster layer to process and click run.

Parameters

Transformer [string]

Scikit-learn python code. See PCA for information on different parameters.

Default:

from sklearn.pipeline import make_pipeline
from sklearn.preprocessing import StandardScaler
from sklearn.decomposition import PCA

pca = PCA(n_components=0.95)
transformer = make_pipeline(StandardScaler(), pca)
Raster layer with features [raster]

Raster layer with feature data X used for fitting the transformer. Mutually exclusive with parameter: Training dataset

Sample size [number]

Approximate number of samples drawn from raster. If 0, whole raster will be used. Note that this is only a hint for limiting the number of rows and columns.

Default: 1000

Training dataset [file]

Training dataset pickle file used for fitting the transformer. Mutually exclusive with parameter: Raster layer with features

Outputs

Output transformer [fileDestination]

Pickle file destination.
