[Response: Something that'll help a bit is to recognize that the basis of PCA is simply an eigenvalue / eigenvector decomposition.

They are correct in that i implemented the fit to the log eigenvalue spectrum in fig S4 incorrectly, but fortunately it makes no difference (as stated above)-- I have no idea why they didn't let me know when they found it.

Precisely that question was addressed by Mann and coworkers in their response to the rejected MM comment through the use of so - called «Monte Carlo» simulations that generate an ensemble of realizations of the random process in question (see here) to determine the «null» eigenvalue spectrum that would be expected from simple red noise with the statistical attributes of the North American ITRDB data.

From the latter, you can't tell whether something is a trend or a cycle with data short compared to the cycle (the eigenvalues of the discriminating matrix explode, making every observation useless).

I would say looking at the PC1 eigenvalue and its explained variance, and the number of PCs required for a given minimal amount of cumulative explained variance (say 40 %) would be very telling.

From M&M 2005: The loadings on the first eigenvalues were inflated by he MBH98 method.

The «short - centered» leading eigenvalue (EV) magnitude for Mann's tree - ring data is much larger than the corresponding EV magnitudes produced in M&M's «red noise» runs.

So the median eigenvalue for M&M's «centered» leading PC's is about ~ 0.04; the median eigenvalue for the «non-centered» leading PC's is about ~ 0.13.

It puts relevant parts of mathematics to use, and finds parts of the vast field of mathematics that are useful, such as Riemann geometries that Einstein used for general relativity, or eigenvalues and matrix operators used by various other physicists for quantum mechanics.

«Along with the use of principal component regression there appears to have been a growth in the misconception that the principal components with small eigenvalues will rarely be of any use in a regression.

The eigenvalues produced by the red noise test are an order of magnitude lower than the eigenvalues produced by Mann's (admittedly incorrect) PCA methodology.

Very good: so you are happy with the method on the grounds that the eigenvalues are smaller for red noise.

The eigenvalues produced by the red noise test are an order of magnitude lower than the eigenvalues produced by...»

But the very meaning of the eigenvalues is to separate those that are more important from the others.

Dismissing eigenvalue analysis as a «trick» that can prove just about anything is just mind - blowingly ignorant!

We found that a good description of the shower shape is obtained when only the two most significant parameters, corresponding to the largest eigenvalues, are kept.

Even if the properly centered PCA is applied to Mann's NOAMER tree - ring data, you get a small number of dominant singular - values / eigenvalues.

Our eigenvalue of 32.3 is quite high and is evidence of a robust factor.

The first factor covered more than 64 % of the total variance of the readability measures with an eigenvalue of 32.3, which is more than 23 units greater than the next factor's eigenvalue.

Eigenvalues are factors that are derived through linear transformations; increasing values correspond to more useful factors.

A cutoff of 0.40 was used for factor loading with an eigenvalue greater than 1, which allows the extracted factor to explain a reasonable proportion of the total variance.

The third component had an initial eigenvalue close to 1 (0.9) and comprised two of the three sexual violence items; otherwise, the structure was identical to the two component solution and largely mirrored VAWI's physical, psychological and sexual violence subscales.

Decisions on the number of components to extract were based on parallel analysis, Kaiser's eigenvalue - greater - than - one rule, total proportion of variance explained and Cattell's scree plot.

The cut - off point for factor loadings was 0.40 and for eigenvalues 1.00.

However, the six factors were originally selected by the Kaiser - Guttman rule (eigenvalue > 1), which is not recommended for determining the number of factors [24] for the following reasons; First, this method is recommended for the principal component analysis (PCA) case and not for the EFA.

Exploratory factor analysis: Using a minimum eigenvalue of 1.0 as the extraction criterion for factors, 3 factors were extracted.

The analysis highlighted 6 factors (the first six eigenvalues were 11.4, 4.2, 2.4, 2.2, 1.7, 1.6) accounting for 41.2 % of the total variance.

Two component solutions were examined: (1) component extraction based on a parallel analysis, proportion of variance explained, Kaiser's eigenvalue - greater - than - one rule and on the examination of Cattell's scree plot and (2) a three - component solution as originally conceptualised in the VAWI.

An initial component extraction showed that there were five dimensions with eigenvalues greater than one.

Factors with an eigenvalue > 1.0 were selected.

Cases were deleted using a listwise deletion and an eigenvalue of 1 was used to interpret the factor structure.

For each scale, two factors with an eigenvalue > 1.0 were identified.

The number of factors was determined by a minimum eigenvalue of 1.00 or greater, followed by a minimum loading of.40 for the items in each factor.

The components that were removed had eigenvalues below 1.25.

Varimax rotation was employed in the factor analysis, and an eigenvalue above one was used as the standard for selecting factors; the results are shown in Table 1.

The criteria used to determine the number of profiles considered as meaningful are identical to those used in PCA analysis (i.e., eigenvalue, explained variance, and interpretability).

Individual items were retained if they had a loading near or over 0.35 and the number of factors was based upon those with eigenvalues greater than one.10 A two - factor solution was the clearest at both ages and accounted for over 95 % of the total variance in the observed variables (Table 2).

Factor analysis of the 30 remaining items was then conducted; the scree plot indicated a one - factor solution, having an eigenvalue of 13.1 and accounting for 43.5 % of the variance.

A principal components factor analysis was then conducted to determine whether the remaining items all loaded a single factor based on both the slope of scree plot as well as examination of the eigenvalues.

We selected factors using eigenvalue scree plots, and chose a factor - loading threshold of 0.3, taking the higher - loaded variable where there was cross-loading (Table 1).
