The theoretical study of FPCA shows that FPCA algorithm has better generalization performance than existing PCA and its extended algorithms. But this theoretic conclusion was not confirmed by existing experimental results because of the problems of evaluation criterion. Introducing the idea of clustering performance criterion of LDA, we proposed a general performance metrics for PCA and performed numbers of experimental studies to compare FPCA with existing PCA and its extended algorithms by using our metrics. We found in the feature extraction of image samples that FPCA really has better generalization performance than existing PCA and its extended algorithms under the condition of large sample size. The results confirmed theoretical conclusion of FPCA and improved relevant experimental study.
