Empirical Bayes PCA in High Dimensions
高维经验贝叶斯主成分分析
Abstract When the dimension of data is comparable to or larger than the number of data samples, principal components analysis (PCA) may exhibit problematic high-dimensional noise. In this work, we propose an empirical Bayes PCA method that reduces this noise by estimating a joint prior distribution for the principal components. EB-PCA is based on the classical Kiefer–Wolfowitz non-parametric maximum likelihood estimator for empirical Bayes estimation, distributional results…
