Regression based thresholds in principal loading analysis

Abstract

Principal loading analysis is a dimension reduction method that discards variables which have only a small distorting effect on the covariance matrix. As a special case, principal loading analysis discards variables that are not correlated with the remaining ones. In multivariate linear regression on the other hand, predictors that are neither correlated with both the remaining predictors nor with the dependent variables have a regression coefficients equal to zero. Hence, if the goal is to select a number of predictors, variables that do not correlate are discarded as it is also done in principal loading analysis. That both methods select the same variables occurs not only for the special case of zero correlation however. We contribute conditions under which both methods share the same variable selection. Further, we extend those conditions to provide a choice for the threshold in principal loading analysis which only follows recommendations based on simulation results so far.
