# mvpa2.mappers.mdp_adaptor.PCAMapper

class `mvpa2.mappers.mdp_adaptor.``PCAMapper`(alg='PCA', nodeargs=None, **kwargs)

  Convenience wrapper to perform PCA using MDP’s Mapper

  Notes

  Available conditional attributes:

  - `calling_time+`: Time (in seconds) it took to call the node
  - `raw_results`: Computed results before invoking postproc. Stored only if postproc is not None.
  - `training_time+`: Time (in seconds) it took to train the learner

  (Conditional attributes enabled by default suffixed with `+`)

  Methods

  `forward`(data) | Map data from input to output space.
  `forward1`(data) | Wrapper method to map single samples.
  `generate`(ds) | Yield processing results.
  `get_postproc`() | Returns the post-processing node or None.
  `get_space`() | Query the processing space name of this node.
  `reset`() |
  `reverse`(data) | Reverse-map data from output back into input space.
  `reverse1`(data) | Wrapper method to map single samples.
  `set_postproc`(node) | Assigns a post-processing node Set to `None` to disable postprocessing.
  `set_space`(name) | Set the processing space name of this node.
  `train`(ds) | The default implementation calls `_pretrain()`, `_train()`, and finally `_posttrain()`.
  `untrain`() | Reverts changes in the state of this node caused by previous training

  Parameters:

  alg : {‘PCA’, ‘NIPALS’}

  > Which MDP implementation of a PCA to use.

  nodeargs : None or dict

  > Arguments passed to the MDP node in various stages of its lifetime. See the `MDPNodeMapper` for more details.

  enable_ca : None or list of str

  > Names of the conditional attributes which should be enabled in addition to the default ones

  disable_ca : None or list of str

  > Names of the conditional attributes which should be disabled

  node : mdp.Node instance

  > This node instance is taken as the pristine source of which a copy is made for actual processing upon each training attempt.

  Methods

  `get_space`() | Query the processing space name of this node.
  `reset`() |
  `reverse`(data) | Reverse-map data from output back into input space.
  `reverse1`(data) | Wrapper method to map single samples.
  `set_postproc`(node) | Assigns a post-processing node Set to `None` to disable postprocessing.
  `set_space`(name) | Set the processing space name of this node.
  `train`(ds) | The default implementation calls `_pretrain()`, `_train()`, and finally `_posttrain()`.
  `untrain`() | Reverts changes in the state of this node caused by previous training

  `centroid`

    Mean of the traiing data

  `proj`

    Projection matrix (as an array)

  `recon`

    Backprojection matrix (as an array)

  `var`

    Variances per component
