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 to 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.

We consider spatially dependent functional data collected under a geostatistics setting, where locations are sampled from a spatial point process. The functional response is the sum of a spatially dependent functional effect and a spatially independe nt functional nugget effect. Observations on each function are made on discrete time points and contaminated with measurement errors. Under the assumption of spatial stationarity and isotropy, we propose a tensor product spline estimator for the spatio-temporal covariance function. When a coregionalization covariance structure is further assumed, we propose a new functional principal component analysis method that borrows information from neighboring functions. The proposed method also generates nonparametric estimators for the spatial covariance functions, which can be used for functional kriging. Under a unified framework for sparse and dense functional data, infill and increasing domain asymptotic paradigms, we develop the asymptotic convergence rates for the proposed estimators. Advantages of the proposed approach are demonstrated through simulation studies and two real data applications representing sparse and dense functional data, respectively.
Functional principal component analysis (FPCA) could become invalid when data involve non-Gaussian features. Therefore, we aim to develop a general FPCA method to adapt to such non-Gaussian cases. A Kenalls $tau$ function, which possesses identical e igenfunctions as covariance function, is constructed. The particular formulation of Kendalls $tau$ function makes it less insensitive to data distribution. We further apply it to the estimation of FPCA and study the corresponding asymptotic consistency. Moreover, the effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated through a comprehensive simulation study and an application to the physical activity data collected by a wearable accelerometer monitor.
Functional principal component analysis is essential in functional data analysis, but the inferences will become unconvincing when some non-Gaussian characteristics occur, such as heavy tail and skewness. The focus of this paper is to develop a robus t functional principal component analysis methodology in dealing with non-Gaussian longitudinal data, for which sparsity and irregularity along with non-negligible measurement errors must be considered. We introduce a Kendalls $tau$ function whose particular properties make it a nice proxy for the covariance function in the eigenequation when handling non-Gaussian cases. Moreover, the estimation procedure is presented and the asymptotic theory is also established. We further demonstrate the superiority and robustness of our method through simulation studies and apply the method to the longitudinal CD4 cell count data in an AIDS study.
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.

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.
