Abstract: Abstract Chapter 10 presented the basic geometric tools needed to produce a lower dimensional description of the rows and columns of a multivariate data matrix. Principal components analysis has the same objective with the exception that the rows of the data matrix $${{\mathcal {X}}}$$ will now be considered as observations from a p-variate random variable X. The principle idea of reducing the dimension of X is achieved through linear combinations.
