Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a statistical technique used to simplify complex datasets by reducing their dimensionality while retaining the most important variance in the data. It transforms the original variables into a new set of uncorrelated variables called principal components, which can help identify patterns and relationships in large datasets, particularly in the context of metabolomics and other '-omics' approaches.
congrats on reading the definition of Principal Component Analysis. now let's actually learn it.
