pca 2.10.1

pca: A Python Package for Principal Component Analysis.

pca is a Python package for Principal Component Analysis. The core of PCA is built on sklearn functionality to find maximum compatibility when combining with other packages. But this package can do a lot more. Besides the regular PCA, it can also perform SparsePCA, and TruncatedSVD. Depending on your input data, the best approach can be chosen. pca contains the most-wanted analysis and plots. Navigate to API documentations for more detailed information. ⭐️ Star it if you like it ⭐️

Examples

Quick Start	Make Biplot
Explained Variance Plot	3D Plots
Alpha Transparency	Normalize Out Principal Components
Extract Feature Importance
Make the biplot to visualize the contribution of each feature to the principal components.
Detect Outliers	Show Only Loadings
Detect outliers using Hotelling's T² and Fisher’s method across top components (PC1–PC5).
Select Outliers	Toggle Visibility
Select and filter identified outliers for deeper inspection or removal.	Toggle visibility of samples and components to clean up visualizations.
Map Unseen Datapoints
Project new data into the transformed PCA space. This enables testing new observations without re-fitting the model.
