Functional principal component analysis forsparse censored data
稀疏删失数据的函数型主成分分析
Summary Functional principal component analysis is a key tool in the study of functional data, driving both exploratory analyses and feature construction for use in formal modelling and testing procedures. However, existing methods do not apply when functional observations are censored; for example, when the measurement instrument only supports recordings within a prespecified interval, thereby truncating values outside this range to the nearest boundary. A naïve application…
