Installation

Requires Python ≥ 3.9. We recommend using a virtual environment:

# Create and activate virtual environment (optional but recommended)
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate  # On Windows, use `.venv\Scripts\activate`

# Install package
pip install multipca

Quick Start

The package includes an example Citibike dataset that demonstrates multiway PCA analysis of bike sharing patterns in NYC. Here's how to get started:

import multipca
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Load the example Citibike data (shape: 24 hours × 35 stations × 522 days)
array = multipca.load_citibike_example()

# MPCA with confidence intervals
results = multipca.mpca_CI(array, r=4)

# Plot the first component's daily pattern with confidence bands
multipca.CI_band_plot(results, rank=1, mode=1)
plt.show()

# If you only need components without confidence intervals
components = multipca.mpca(array, r=4)
