Transforming a dataset into one with fewer columns is more complicated than it might seem, explains Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research in this full-code, step-by-step machine learning tutorial.

There are two main techniques to implement PCA. The first technique, sometimes called classical, computes eigenvalues and eigenvectors from a covariance matrix derived from the source data. The second ...
