Evaluate performance of PC estimates

Evaluate performance of PC estimates compared to true PC values

Usage

perfMetric(U, U_est, k = ncol(U_est), metric = c("MEV", "minSSE"))

Arguments

U

true eigen values

U_est

estimated eigen-values

k

number of PCs to evaluate

metric

evaluate the accuracy of the estimated PCs compared to the true PCs using mean explained variance ("MEV") or minimum of sum of squared errors ("minSSE")

Value

performance metric

Details

See performance metrics described by Li, et al. (2023)

Examples

hilbert <- function(n) { i <- 1:n; 1 / outer(i - 1, i, `+`) }
X <- hilbert(9)[, 1:6]
k <- 4

# Compute SVD using two methods
dcmp1 <- svd(X, k, k)
dcmp2 <- dashSVD( X, k=k)

# Mean variance explained is 1
perfMetric(dcmp1$u, dcmp2$u, metric = "MEV")
#> [1] 1

# minimum of sum of squared errors zero
perfMetric(dcmp1$u, dcmp2$u, metric = "minSSE")
#> [1] 1.100796e-12
