Abstract
Two principalโcomponent methods are used in color science. For a given data set of spectra, one method finds the bestโfitting subspace about the mean spectrum, and the other finds the bestโfitting subspace about the zero spectrum. The first of these was originally developed for illuminants and the second for reflectance analysis. Yet there seems to be no strong argument for choosing one method over the other, in either case. Hence it is urged that each of us declares which one we are using, even if making that discrimination is considered โnonโPCโ (i.e., not โpolitically correctโ). ยฉ 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Principal component analysis (PCA), also known as proper orthogonal decomposition or Karhunen}Loe`ve transform, is commonly used to reduce the dimensionality of a data set with a large number of interdependent variables. PCA is the optimal linear transformation with respect to minimizing the mean sq
