Hypertension is one of the common diseases among people all over the world. Clinical Medicine Hypertension is mainly of two types-Essential Hypertension and Secondary or Systemic Hypertension. Here, we are working with Essential Hypertension. There are more than 200 remedies found under the rubric Hypertension in the latest homeopathic repertory but all of them are not equally important. Even some of them are not well, proved. drugs. For this reason we have chosen some most important polychrest (most commonly used broad spectrum homeopathic remedies) as well as the medicines that have effective role in controlling Hypertension in daily practice. In this paper, we will develop a computational model that retrieve more important and less important symptoms to assess a Hypertension patient. We also rank the medicines, used for Essential Hypertension as per importance by using Principal Component Analysis.

The authentication of writers, handwritten autograph is widely realized throughout the world, the thorough check of the autograph is important before going to the outcome about the signer. The Arabic autograph has unique characteristics; it includes lines, and overlapping. It will be more difficult to realize higher achievement accuracy. This project attention the above difficulty by achieved selected best characteristics of Arabic autograph authentication, characterized by the number of attributes representing for each autograph. Where the objective is to differentiate if an obtain autograph is genuine, or a forgery. The planned method is based on Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) to extract feature, then Spars Principal Component Analysis (SPCA) to selection significant attributes for Arabic autograph handwritten recognition to aid the authentication step. Finally, decision tree classifier was achieved for signature authentication. The suggested method DCT with SPCA achieves good outcomes for Arabic autograph dataset when we have verified on various techniques.

There are now a wide variety of global indicators that measure different economic, political and social attributes of countries in the world. This paper seeks to answer two questions. First, what is the degree of overlap between these different measures? Are they, in fact, measuring the same underlying dimension? To answer this question, we employ a principal component analysis (PCA) to 15 indices across 145 countries. The results demonstrate that there is one underlying dimension that combines economic development and social progress with state stability. Second, how do countries score on this dimension? The results of the PCA allow us to produce categorical divisions of the world. The threefold division identifies a world composed of what we describe and map as rich, poor and middle countries. A five-group classification provided a more nuanced categorization described as: The very rich, free and stable; affluent and free; upper middle; lower middle; poor and not free.

Principal Component Analysis (PCA) merupakan salah satu analisis multivariat yang digunakan untuk mengganti variable dengan Principal Component yang sedikit jumlahnya namun tidak terlalu banyak informasi yang hilang. Atau dengan kata lain, it used to explain the underlying variance-covariance structure of the large data set of variables through a few linear combination of these variables. PCA sangat dipengaruhi oleh kehadiran outlier karena didasarkan pada matriks kovarian yang sensitive terhadap outlier. Oleh karena itu, pada analisis ini akan digunakan PCA yang robust terhadap outlier yaitu ROBPCA atau PCA Hubert. Selanjutnya, dari Principal Component yang terbentuk digunakan sebagai input (masukan) untuk cluster analysis dengan metode Clara (Clustering Large Area). Clustering Large Area merupakan salah satu metode k-medoids yang robust terhadap outlier dan baik digunakan pada data dalam jumlah besar. Dalam studi kasus terhadap variabel penyusun indeks kebahagiaan berdasarkan The World Happiness Report 2018 dengan metode Clara yang menggunakan jarak manhattan didapatkan nilai rata-rata Overall Average Silhouette Width yang terbaik pada 5 cluster.

Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death in the world and Quoting from WHO, around 31% of deaths in the world are caused by cardiovascular diseases and more than 75% of deaths occur in developing countries. The results of patients with cardiovascular disease produce many medical records that can be used for further patient management. This study aims to develop a method of data mining by grouping patients with cardiovascular disease to determine the level of patient complications in the two clusters. The method applied is principal component analysis (PCA) which aims to reduce the dimensions of the large data available and the techniques of data mining in the form of cluster analysis which implements the K-Medoids algorithm. The results of data reduction with PCA resulted in five new components with a cumulative proportion variance of 0.8311. The five new components are implemented for cluster formation using the K-Medoids algorithm which results in the form of two clusters with a silhouette coefficient of 0.35. Combination of techniques of Data reduction by PCA and the application of the K-Medoids clustering algorithm are new ways for grouping data of patients with cardiovascular disease based on the level of patient complications in each cluster of data generated.

This paper proposes a novel robust adaptive principal component analysis (RAPCA) method based on intergraph matrix for image registration in order to improve robustness and real-time performance. The contributions can be divided into three parts. Firstly, a novel RAPCA method is developed to capture the common structure patterns based on intergraph matrix of the objects. Secondly, the robust similarity measure is proposed based on adaptive principal component. Finally, the robust registration algorithm is derived based on the RAPCA. The experimental results show that the proposed method is very effective in capturing the common structure patterns for image registration on real-world images.

This paper proposes a novel supervised learning technique for forecasting: scaled principal component analysis (sPCA). The sPCA improves the traditional principal component analysis (PCA) by scaling each predictor with its predictive slope on the target to be forecasted. Unlike the PCA that maximizes the common variation of the predictors, the sPCA assigns more weight to those predictors with stronger forecasting power. In a general factor framework, we show that, under some appropriate conditions on data, the sPCA forecast beats the PCA forecast, and when these conditions break down, extensive simulations indicate that the sPCA still has a large chance to outperform the PCA. A real data example on macroeconomic forecasting shows that the sPCA has better performance in general.

AbstractWe present a Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of the V band light-curves of a sample of more than 100 nearby Core collapse supernovae (CC SNe) from [Anderson et al. (2014)]. We used different reference epochs in order to extract the common properties of these light-curves and searched for correlations to some physical parameters such as the burning of 56Ni, and morphological light-curve parameters such as the length of the plateau, the stretch of the light-curve, and the decrements in brightness after maximum and after the plateau. We also used these similarities to create SNe II light-curve templates that will be used in the future for standardize these objects and determine cosmological distances.
