NPCA: a linear dimensionality reduction method using a multilayer perceptron.

ABSTRACT: Background: Linear dimensionality reduction techniques are widely used in many applications. The goal of dimensionality reduction is to eliminate the noise of data and extract the main features of data. Several dimension reduction methods have been developed, such as linear-based principal component analysis (PCA), nonlinear-based t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE), and deep-learning-based autoencoder (AE). However, PCA only determines the projection direction with the highest variance, t-SNE is sometimes only suitable for visualization, and AE and nonlinear methods discard the linear projection. Results: To retain the linear projection of raw data and generate a better result of dimension reduction either for visualization or downstream analysis, we present
