The following notation will be used: * nxd = matrix




Reasons to reduce dimensionality:
No
-Reduces time complexity; less computation
-Reduces space complexity; fewer parameters
* 1st Axis PCA creates accounts
-Saves cost of observing/measuring features
-Simpler models are more robust in small datasets for most variation in data
-More interpretable; simpler explanation
-Data visualisation (structure, groups, outliers) if plotted in 2 or 3 dimensions
Unsupervised
Feature selection: (subset selection algorithms): choosing k<d important features and ignoring the remaining d - k
->preferred when features are individually powerful/meaningful
Feature extraction: project the original x i, i=1,…,d dimensions to new k<d dimensions zj, j=1,…,k)
->preferred when features are individually weak and have similar variance
We want to maximise

Considering a constrained optimisation problem min x Tw subject to Aw = b, w ∈ S w varianeas
Lagrangian Relaxation method relaxes the explicit linear (equality) constraints by introducing a langrange multiplier
t
vector λ and brings them into the optimization function: min x tw + λ (Aw - b) subject to w ∈ S
The langrangian function of the original problem can be expressed as: L(λ) = min{x t w + λ (Aw - b) | w ∈ S}

PCA makes sure z = W (x - m), where the columns of W are the eigenvectors of ∑ and m is sample mean;

when λ i are sorted in descending order, typically you can stop at PoV > 0.9 or elbow data visualisation/dimensionality reduction
PCA can be applied to clean out outliers from data, to de-noise, and learn/explore common patterns(eigenvectors)

If you know something is an eigenvector for a given matrix/linear transformation, you know that, that linear transformation will map that
eigenvector onto a different vector which maintains the same ratios (ex. ratios of x1(length) to x2(weight))
