Principal Component Analysis in Python and MATLAB
Requirements
- Python Programming
- MATLAB Programming
- Basics of Data Analysis
Description
Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is an unsupervised learning algorithms and it is mainly used for dimensionality reduction, lossy data compression and feature extraction. It is the mostly used unsupervised learning algorithm in the field of Machine Learning.
In this video tutorial, after reviewing the theoretical foundations of Principal Component Analysis (PCA), this method is implemented step-by-step in Python and MATLAB. Also, PCA is performed on Iris Dataset and images of hand-written numerical digits, using Scikit-Learn (Python library for Machine Learning) and Statistics Toolbox of MATLAB. Also the projects files are available to download at the end of this post.
Who this course is for:
- Data Scientists and Analysts
- Computer Science and Engineering Students
- Anyone interested in Data Science
Instructors
The Yarpiz project is aimed to be a resource of academic and professional scientific source codes and tutorials, specially Computational Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Evolutionary Computation. Beside video tutorials, various source codes are available to download, via Yarpiz website.
The word Yarpiz (pronounced /jɑrpəz/) is an Azeri Turkish word, meaning Pennyroyal or Mentha Pulegium plant.
