pca() outputs the coefficient of the variables and principal components of a data. Is there any way to reduce the dimension of the data (340 observations), let say from 1200 dimension to 30 dimension using pca()?

You should just be able to keep the 30 largest components from running pca.

I use
[residuals,reconstructed] = pcares(X,ndim)

Hi Hg,
What you can do is to use pca directly. Say that X is of size 340x1200 (340 measurements and 1200 variables/dimensions). You want to get an output with reduced dimensionaty of 30. The code below will do that for you:
p = 30;
[~, pca_scores, ~, ~, var_explained] = pca(X, 'NumComponents', p);
  • pca_scores is your reduced dimension data.
  • var_explained contains the respective variances of each component.
I hope that helps.
