In this paper we develop a new approach to sparse principal component analysis (sparse PCA). We propose two single-unit and two block optimization formulations of the sparse PCA problem, aimed at extracting a single sparse dominant principal component of a data matrix, or more components at once, respectively. While the initial formulations involve nonconvex functions, and are therefore computationally intractable, we rewrite them into the form of an optimization program involving maximization of a convex function on a compact set. The dimension of the search space is decreased enormously if the data matrix has many more columns (variables) than rows. We then propose and analyze a simple gradient method suited for the task. It appears that our algorithm has best convergence properties in the case when either the objective function or the feasible set are strongly convex, which is the case with our single-unit formulations and can be enforced in the block case. Finally, we demonstrate numerically on a set of random and gene expression test problems that our approach outperforms existing algorithms both in quality of the obtained solution and in computational speed.

Principal component analysis (PCA) is a statistical technique commonly used in multivariate data analysis. However, PCA can be difficult to interpret and explain since the principal components (PCs) are linear combinations of the original variables. Sparse PCA (SPCA) aims to balance statistical fidelity and interpretability by approximating sparse PCs whose projections capture the maximal variance of original data. In this paper we present an efficient and paralleled method of SPCA using graphics processing units (GPUs), which can process large blocks of data in parallel. Specifically, we construct parallel implementations of the four optimization formulations of the generalized power method of SPCA (GP-SPCA), one of the most efficient and effective SPCA approaches, on a GPU. The parallel GPU implementation of GP-SPCA (using CUBLAS) is up to eleven times faster than the corresponding CPU implementation (using CBLAS), and up to 107 times faster than a MatLab implementation. Extensive comparative experiments in several real-world datasets confirm that SPCA offers a practical advantage.
Sparse Principal Component Analysis (SPCA) is widely used in data processing and dimension reduction; it uses the lasso to produce modified principal components with sparse loadings for better interpretability. However, sparse PCA never considers an additional grouping structure where the loadings share similar coefficients (i.e., feature grouping), besides a special group with all coefficients being zero (i.e., feature selection). In this paper, we propose a novel method called Feature Grouping and Sparse Principal Component Analysis (FGSPCA) which allows the loadings to belong to disjoint homogeneous groups, with sparsity as a special case. The proposed FGSPCA is a subspace learning method designed to simultaneously perform grouping pursuit and feature selection, by imposing a non-convex regularization with naturally adjustable sparsity and grouping effect. To solve the resulting non-convex optimization problem, we propose an alternating algorithm that incorporates the difference-of-convex programming, augmented Lagrange and coordinate descent methods. Additionally, the experimental results on real data sets show that the proposed FGSPCA benefits from the grouping effect compared with methods without grouping effect.
Functional binary datasets occur frequently in real practice, whereas discrete characteristics of the data can bring challenges to model estimation. In this paper, we propose a sparse logistic functional principal component analysis (SLFPCA) method t o handle the functional binary data. The SLFPCA looks for local sparsity of the eigenfunctions to obtain convenience in interpretation. We formulate the problem through a penalized Bernoulli likelihood with both roughness penalty and sparseness penalty terms. An efficient algorithm is developed for the optimization of the penalized likelihood using majorization-minimization (MM) algorithm. The theoretical results indicate both consistency and sparsistency of the proposed method. We conduct a thorough numerical experiment to demonstrate the advantages of the SLFPCA approach. Our method is further applied to a physical activity dataset.

A principal component analysis based on the generalized Gini correlation index is proposed (Gini PCA). The Gini PCA generalizes the standard PCA based on the variance. It is shown, in the Gaussian case, that the standard PCA is equivalent to the Gini PCA. It is also proven that the dimensionality reduction based on the generalized Gini correlation matrix, that relies on city-block distances, is robust to outliers. Monte Carlo simulations and an application on cars data (with outliers) show the robustness of the Gini PCA and provide different interpretations of the results compared with the variance PCA.

We present a novel technique for sparse principal component analysis. This method, named Eigenvectors from Eigenvalues Sparse Principal Component Analysis (EESPCA), is based on the recently detailed formula for computing normed, squared eigenvector l oadings of a Hermitian matrix from the eigenvalues of the full matrix and associated sub-matrices. Relative to the state-of-the-art LASSO-based sparse PCA method of Witten, Tibshirani and Hastie, the EESPCA technique offers a two-orders-of-magnitude improvement in computational speed, does not require estimation of tuning parameters, and can more accurately identify true zero principal component loadings across a range of data matrix sizes and covariance structures. Importantly, EESPCA achieves these performance benefits while maintaining a reconstruction error close to that generated by the Witten et al. approach. EESPCA is a practical and effective technique for sparse PCA with particular relevance to computationally demanding problems such as the analysis of large data matrices or statistical techniques like resampling that involve the repeated application of sparse PCA.
