An example would be that if we are given 5 years of closing price data for 10 companies, i.e. approximately 1265 data points * 10. We would seek to reduce this number in such a way that the information is preserved.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, in the real world, there would be some information loss and thus, we use the principal component analysis to make sure that it is kept to a minimum.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That sounds interesting, but how do we do this exactly?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The answer is &#8216;EigenValues&#8217;. Well, that\u2019s not the whole answer but in a way it is. Before we get into the mathematics of it, let us refresh our concepts about the Matrix (no, not the movie!). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Eigen Vectors and Covariance Matrix<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the major applications of Eigenvectors and Eigenvalues is in image transformations. Remember how we can tilt an image in any of the photo editing apps. Well, Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors helps us in this regard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Basically, when we multiply a vector with a matrix, the vector gets transformed. By transformed we mean the direction and the magnitude of the vector might change. There are however some vectors for which the direction does not change. The magnitude might change however. So formally, this is what happens, for a transforming matrix A and a vector v:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Av = \u03bbv<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The entire set of such vectors which do not change direction when multiplied with a matrix are called Eigen Vectors. The corresponding change in magnitude is called the Eigen Value. It is represented with \u03bb here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember how we said that the ultimate aim of the principal component analysis is to reduce the number of variables. Well, Eigenvectors and Eigenvalues help in this regard. One thing to follow is that Eigenvectors are for a square matrix i.e. a matrix with an equal number of rows and columns. But they can also be calculated for rectangular matrices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s say we have a matrix A, which consists of the following elements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"\"><tbody><tr><td>2<\/td><td>8<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>6<\/td><td>10<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, we have to find the Eigenvectors and Eigenvalues in such a manner such that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Av = \u03bbv<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Where,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>v is a matrix consisting of Eigenvectors, and<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u03bb is the Eigenvalue<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While it may sound daunting, but there is a simple method to find the Eigenvectors and Eigenvalues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us modify the equation to the following,&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Av = \u03bbIv (We know that AI = A)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If we bring the values from the R.H.S to the L.H.S, then,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Av &#8211; \u03bbIv = 0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, we will assume that the Eigenvector matrix is non-zero. Thus, we can find \u03bb by finding the determinant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, | A &#8211; \u03bbI | = 0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(2 &#8211; \u03bb)(10 &#8211; \u03bb) &#8211; (8*6) = &nbsp;0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>20 &#8211; 2\u03bb &#8211; 10\u03bb +\u03bb^2 &#8211; 48 = 0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-28 -12\u03bb+ \u03bb^2 = 0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u03bb^2 -12\u03bb &#8211; 28 = 0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(\u03bb &#8211; 14)(\u03bb +2) = 0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u03bb = 14, -2<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, we can say that the Eigenvalues are 14, -2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking the \u03bb value as -2. We will now find the Eigenvector matrix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recall that, Av = \u03bbv<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s say that the Eigenvector matrix is as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure

-2x<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(8x + 10y) = -2y<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(4x + 6y) = 0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(8x + 12y) = 0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since they are similar, solving them to get, 2x + 3y = 0, x = (-3\/2)y<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>X = -3, y = 2<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, the Eigenvector matrix is&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/d1rwhvwstyk9gu.cloudfront.net\/2020\/01\/Second-Matrix.png\" alt=\"\"

be written in the following manner,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/d1rwhvwstyk9gu.cloudfront.net\/2020\/01\/Third-Matrix.png\" alt=\"\"

the Eigenvectors are x =1, y = 2<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Visit QuantInsti to read the full article and download the code:<br><a
