Interpretability of Composite Indicators Based on Principal Components
Principal component approaches are often used in the construction of composite indicators to summarize the information of input variables. The gain of dimension reduction comes at the cost of difficulties in interpretation, inaccurate targeting, and ...

Principal Fitted Components for Dimension Reduction in Regression [PDF]
We provide a remedy for two concerns that have dogged the use of principal components in regression: (i) principal components are computed from the predictors alone and do not make apparent use of the response, and (ii) principal components are not ...
