hand vs. foot length with both vectors

PCA concept

hand vs. foot length with vectors and coordinates

PCA concept

hand vs. foot length with vectors and PC coordinates

Calculating the principal components

from sklearn.preprocessing import StandardScaler

scaler = StandardScaler()
std_df = scaler.fit_transform(df)

from sklearn.decomposition import PCA

pca = PCA()
print(pca.fit_transform(std_df))

[[-0.08320426 -0.12242952]
 [ 0.31478004  0.57048158]
 ...
 [-0.5609523   0.13713944]
 [-0.0448304  -0.37898246]]

PCA removes correlation

PCA transformation

Principal component explained variance ratio

from sklearn.decomposition import PCA

pca = PCA()

pca.fit(std_df)

print(pca.explained_variance_ratio_)

array([0.90, 0.10])

PCA for dimensionality reduction

Left vs. right leg

PCA for dimensionality reduction

left vs. right leg with vectors

print(pca.explained_variance_ratio_)

array([0.9997, 0.0003])

PCA for dimensionality reduction

pca = PCA()

pca.fit(ansur_std_df)

print(pca.explained_variance_ratio_)

array([0.44, 0.18, 0.04, 0.03, 0.02, 0.02, 0.02, 0.01, 0.01, 0.01, 0.01,

PCA for dimensionality reduction

pca.fit(ansur_std_df)

print(pca.explained_variance_ratio_.cumsum())
