Principal component analysis (PCA).
Linear dimensionality reduction using Singular Value Decomposition of the data to project it to a lower dimensional space. The input data is centered but not scaled for each feature before applying the SVD.
It uses the LAPACK implementation of the full SVD or a randomized truncated SVD by the method of Halko et al. 2009, depending on the shape of the input data and the number of components to extract.
It can also use the scipy.sparse.linalg ARPACK implementation of the truncated SVD.
Notice that this class does not support sparse input. See :class:`TruncatedSVD` for an alternative with sparse data.

Parameters ---------- n_components : int, float, None or str Number of components to keep. if n_components is not set all components are kept::
n_components == min(n_samples, n_features)
If ``n_components == 'mle'`` and ``svd_solver == 'full'``, Minka's MLE is used to guess the dimension. Use of ``n_components == 'mle'`` will interpret ``svd_solver == 'auto'`` as ``svd_solver == 'full'``.
If ``0 < n_components < 1`` and ``svd_solver == 'full'``, select the number of components such that the amount of variance that needs to be explained is greater than the percentage specified by n_components.
If ``svd_solver == 'arpack'``, the number of components must be strictly less than the minimum of n_features and n_samples.
Hence, the None case results in::
n_components == min(n_samples, n_features) - 1
copy : bool, default=True If False, data passed to fit are overwritten and running fit(X).transform(X) will not yield the expected results, use fit_transform(X) instead.
whiten : bool, optional (default False) When True (False by default) the `components_` vectors are multiplied by the square root of n_samples and then divided by the singular values to ensure uncorrelated outputs with unit component-wise variances.
Whitening will remove some information from the transformed signal (the relative variance scales of the components) but can sometime improve the predictive accuracy of the downstream estimators by making their data respect some hard-wired assumptions.
svd_solver : str 'auto', 'full', 'arpack', 'randomized'
If auto : The solver is selected by a default policy based on `X.shape` and `n_components`: if the input data is larger than 500x500 and the number of components to extract is lower than 80% of the smallest dimension of the data, then the more efficient 'randomized' method is enabled. Otherwise the exact full SVD is computed and optionally truncated afterwards. If full : run exact full SVD calling the standard LAPACK solver via `scipy.linalg.svd` and select the components by postprocessing If arpack : run SVD truncated to n_components calling ARPACK solver via `scipy.sparse.linalg.svds`. It requires strictly 0 < n_components < min(X.shape) If randomized : run randomized SVD by the method of Halko et al.
.. versionadded:: 0.18.0
tol : float >= 0, optional (default .0) Tolerance for singular values computed by svd_solver == 'arpack'.
.. versionadded:: 0.18.0
iterated_power : int >= 0, or 'auto', (default 'auto') Number of iterations for the power method computed by svd_solver == 'randomized'.
.. versionadded:: 0.18.0
random_state : int, RandomState instance or None, optional (default None) If int, random_state is the seed used by the random number generator; If RandomState instance, random_state is the random number generator; If None, the random number generator is the RandomState instance used by `np.random`. Used when ``svd_solver`` == 'arpack' or 'randomized'.

Attributes ---------- components_ : array, shape (n_components, n_features) Principal axes in feature space, representing the directions of maximum variance in the data. The components are sorted by ``explained_variance_``.
explained_variance_ : array, shape (n_components,) The amount of variance explained by each of the selected components.
Equal to n_components largest eigenvalues of the covariance matrix of X.
.. versionadded:: 0.18
explained_variance_ratio_ : array, shape (n_components,) Percentage of variance explained by each of the selected components.
If ``n_components`` is not set then all components are stored and the sum of the ratios is equal to 1.0.
singular_values_ : array, shape (n_components,) The singular values corresponding to each of the selected components. The singular values are equal to the 2-norms of the ``n_components`` variables in the lower-dimensional space.
.. versionadded:: 0.19
mean_ : array, shape (n_features,) Per-feature empirical mean, estimated from the training set.
Equal to `X.mean(axis=0)`.
n_components_ : int The estimated number of components. When n_components is set to 'mle' or a number between 0 and 1 (with svd_solver == 'full') this number is estimated from input data. Otherwise it equals the parameter n_components, or the lesser value of n_features and n_samples if n_components is None.
n_features_ : int Number of features in the training data.
n_samples_ : int Number of samples in the training data.
noise_variance_ : float The estimated noise covariance following the Probabilistic PCA model from Tipping and Bishop 1999. See "Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning" by C. Bishop, 12.2.1 p. 574 or http://www.miketipping.com/papers/met-mppca.pdf. It is required to compute the estimated data covariance and score samples.
Equal to the average of (min(n_features, n_samples) - n_components) smallest eigenvalues of the covariance matrix of X.
