Both are the same data reduction techniques that are immensely helpful in big data analysis in many other areas. I personally think factor analysis is just an offshoot of PCA and as the authors have mentioned PCA with Varimax is a vintage data analysis technique. So, should the title of the paper be Vintage PCA with Varimax performing statistical inference? I am quite…
