In this paper, a different approach based on some measures of closeness between the subspaces spanned by the initial eigenvectors and their corresponding version derived from an infinitesimal perturbation of the data distribution is proposed.
Abstract
In the context of sensitivity analysis in principal component analysis, Tanaka (1988) tackles the problem of the stability of the subspace spanned by dominant principal components. He derives the influence functions related to the projection operator on this subspace and to the spectral decomposition of the covariance or correlation matrix as sensitivity indicators. We suggest here a different approach based on some measures of closeness between the subspaces spanned by the initial eigenvectors and their corresponding version derived from an infinitesimal perturbation of the data distribution.

Factor Analysis and Principal Components

TL;DR: In this paper, the principal components of a vector of random variables are related to the common factors of a factor analysis model for this vector and conditions are presented under which components and factors as well as factor proxies come close to each other.

Influence functions for sliced inverse regression.

TL;DR: In this paper, the robustness of SIR is investigated by deriving and plotting the influence function for a variety of contamination structures, and the asymptotic variance of the estimates is also derived for the single index model when the explanatory variable is known to be normally distributed.

A Unifying Tool for Linear Multivariate Statistical Methods: The RV-Coefficient

TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that most classical methods of linear multivariate statistical analysis can be interpreted as the search for optimal linear transformations or, equivalently, the searching for optimal metrics to apply on two data matrices on the same sample; the optimality is defined in terms of the similarity of the corresponding configurations of points, which, in turn, calls for the maximization of the associated RV•coefficient.
