我们研究了平均零i.i.d.的主成分分析(PCA)。可分希尔伯特空间$\mathbb{H}$中的高斯观测值$X_1,\dots,X_n$,协方差算子$\Sigma.$问题的复杂性由其有效秩${\bf r}(\Sigma):= \frac{{\rm tr}(\Sigma)}{\|\Sigma\|},$来表征,其中${\rm tr}(\Sigma)$表示$\Sigma$的迹,$\|\Sigma\|$表示其算子范数。本文提出了一种在$\Sigma特征向量的线性泛函估计问题中减少偏差的方法。在${\bfr}(\Sigma)=o(n)的假设下,我们建立了估计量风险的渐近正态性和渐近性质,并证明了匹配的极小极大下界,显示了它们的半参数最优性.
We study principal component analysis (PCA) for mean zero i.i.d. Gaussian observations $X_1,\dots, X_n$ in a separable Hilbert space $\mathbb{H}$ with unknown covariance operator $\Sigma.$ The complexity of the problem is characterized by its effective rank ${\bf r}(\Sigma):= \frac{{\rm tr}(\Sigma)}{\|\Sigma\|},$ where ${\rm tr}(\Sigma)$ denotes the trace of $\Sigma$ and $\|\Sigma\|$ denotes its operator norm. We develop a method of bias reduction in the problem of estimation of linear functionals of eigenvectors of $\Sigma.$ Under the assumption that ${\bf r}(\Sigma)=o(n),$ we establish the asymptotic normality and asymptotic properties of the risk of the resulting estimators and prove matching minimax lower bounds, showing their semi-parametric optimality.
