PCA sign and singular values

I have read some pretty good information on PCA, so I grok in the MDGS, APC tries to reduce the number of attributes by projecting on the vectors 'feature '.  I am curious about the sign of the singular value.  It is my understanding that the magnitude is the 'distance' so far that the feature should be projected onto the characteristic vector.  I think, but I'm not positive, that the sign of the singular value is the direction along the axis of the attribute attribute must jump to this projection.

I searched a bit for this information, but cannot be verified.  Can someone comment?

The singular values are associated with swine vesicular disease from PORK and are always positive. The question is probably on the sign of the value of the function that is the projection on the new coordinate axis. The feature vectors represent a new coordinated basis. The bases have directions, so there is a sign associated with the projection. Note that the directions of the axes are somewhat arbitrary, and different solvers may differ in signs and nothing else. If the value of the characteristic is the projection of the point of origin on the new axis and can have a positive or negative sign and the extent of the projections can be used for comparisons. Projections of PCA are preserving distance, so you can compare the data points in the new space.

  • Ignore the dollar sign and comma

    Can someone help me please. I have two fields that perform calculations based on what a user entered for a value of homes. Basically I want to ignore the dollar signs and commas if they put in the value of the homes. So if the user enters $120,000.00 I still want the value to be calculated even if he has the dollar sign and the decimal point in it... Any ideas?

    the min and MAX values maintain their good values tia sal22

    Hi all

    I have problems a little value to stay in their correct min and max values min and max.
    Continue to change their values (up and down) trying to get the max value to only display the maximum value at a given time and the same for the min value.  I looked at the examples max and min and it seems that it should be in a while loop
    http://forums.NI.com/NI/board/message?board.ID=170&thread.ID=359822

    but I would add another while loop and if so put it in the loop for? or is there a better way to do it.

    Hi sal22,

    I thought it was just one example you found somewhere, because it is called red rooster. See the attached example.

  • Help compare the negative and positive values

    Well guys, I do this example to show you what I mean

    With this example, I can get positive and negative numbers in digital

    But for me, the 'negative' mean nothing

    Example:

    If I have "100-200" for me the biggest value is - 200

    But if I compare the values of bouth got 100 as greater value

    I do the same calc for 3 different variables such as A, B, C

    and after that I need to calc whose value is 'more '.

    But my problem is that if I have the values "-350 300-400.

    the largest will be "300", but for me the 'negative' mean nothing

    so I need to the largest value is "-400".

    For all positive values, its works very well!

    I compare A and B, after the highest is on C and have a result!

    but when I have negative and positive values... I had this problem...

    and when I have negative values only I have a problem too.

    '-300-400-500' for me the largest value must be "-500" but labview-watch "300".

    as - 300 is greater than-500 in algebriac.

    And if I use absolute values, I will always have a positive value... but I need to know if the value is positive or negative

    No matter which, can help me with this?

    Thank you

  • Send the name and the value of the control to Subvi

    Hi all

    I am trying to send the names and values of the controls to a Subvi.

    I know that I can check out the name and the value of the control by using a property node, but I was looking for a way to make is easy for the programmer to use.

    I think some sort of bundle function, it records the name and the value of the control, but I would like the programmer to be able to connect a random number

    controls to the Subvi without having to specify the number of controls Anywhere.

    I know there is stuff in labview configuration file, but it seems a bit more complex, so what I want to do.

    Also, I know that I can use the OpenG toolkit, but I will not use additional LabVIEW modules, as this VI may run on several different computers.

    I hope I made my problem clear enough!

    Good day

    Concerning

    Tommy

    What, creating an array of references to the command.  On the hand, you will need to fill the table with control references that you want to send to the Subvi.  In the Subvi, use a loop For with indexing to get every reference, and then use the nodes property to get the name and value.

  • How meter and analog value FIFO synchorize

    I use a card NI 6123.

    Anyone knows how to put 6 analog values and the value of the counter in FIFO with the same rate: 4 k.

    Thus, every second, there should be 6 * 4 k analog values and 4 k in FIFO counter value.

    The problem is:

    1. the counter is a numeric value, so I can't put a sampling on it. So how can I put the value of the counter in the FIFO every second of 1/4000

    2. how to sync analog channels and channel meter.

    It is possible to apply for a meter in the buffer.  (this is actually preferred).  Simply specify a sampling and source clock.  Given that you want the meter to "lock" data from the meter to the same rate as the sample analog clock to simply specify this sample clock as the sample for the meter clock.

    An example of event in the buffer (life-long) count can be found here by using an external clock (your HAVE sample digital Instruments\NI-DAQ\Examples\MStudioVC2005\Counter\Count Events\CountDigEventsBuffContinuous_ExtClk clock):...\National)

    Check out this example and I think he should get you operational.

    In the mouse settings, make sure that ClickLock is unchecked.  This feature, if enabled, will cause the cursor being stuck in the corresponding mode.
