Decomposition

Decomposing a multivariate dataset in a set of successive orthogonal components that explain a maximum amount of the variance can be accomplished using:

PCA

pcafit
Principal Component Analysis.
pcatransform
Transforms target values for the test data points using parameters computed by pcaFit function.
