Hi,
I am trying to do a Principal component analysis on histogram data.
Basically, I have a group of subjects and for each of them, I have a column
of bin-counts (vis-a-vis intervals) and a corresponding column of
frequencies (or normalized frequencies). The bin counts are the same for all
the subjects. I also have a group-averaged histogram (with the same bin
counts and a column of frequencies) reflecting the overall group behavior.
I would like to apply PCA on these histograms (specifically the group
averaged one) to come up with the first few eigenvectors/PC scores that
would summarize the information contained in the histograms. Some medical
papers have done this (Dehmeshki J, Ruto AC, Arridge S...(2001) : Analysis
Of MTR histograms in multiple sclerosis using PC and muliple LDA") maybe
using some medical softwares. However, It would be great to know if there
are any R functions that can do this.
Thanks and regards,
