Two derivations of Principal Component Analysis on datasets of distributions
In this brief note, we formulate Principal Component Analysis (PCA) over datasets consisting not of points but of distributions, characterized by their location and covariance. Just like the usual PCA on points can be equivalently derived via a variance-maximization principle and via a minimization of reconstruction error, we derive a closed-form solution for distributional PCA from both of these perspectives.

Uncertainty-Aware Principal Component Analysis
We present a technique to perform dimensionality reduction on data that is subject to uncertainty. Our method is a generalization of traditional principal component analysis (PCA) to multivariate probability distribution…
Dimensionality ReductionOn the Wasserstein Geodesic Principal Component Analysis of probability measures
This paper focuses on Geodesic Principal Component Analysis (GPCA) on a collection of probability distributions using the Otto-Wasserstein geometry. The goal is to identify geodesic curves in the space of probability mea…
On Robust Probabilistic Principal Component Analysis using Multivariate $t$-Distributions
Probabilistic principal component analysis (PPCA) is a probabilistic reformulation of principal component analysis (PCA), under the framework of a Gaussian latent variable model. To improve the robustness of PPCA, it has…
Testing Goodness-of-Fit for Conditional Distributions: A New Perspective based on Principal Component Analysis
This paper introduces a novel goodness-of-fit test technique for parametric conditional distributions. The proposed tests are based on a residual marked empirical process, for which we develop a conditional Principal Com…
High Dimensional Semiparametric Scale-Invariant Principal Component Analysis
We propose a new high dimensional semiparametric principal component analysis (PCA) method, named Copula Component Analysis (COCA). The semiparametric model assumes that, after unspecified marginally monotone transformat…
