【报告摘要】：Principal component analysis (PCA) is well-studied and widely adopted in applications, but extending it to complex data analysis in metric spaces remains a challenge. In this work, we propose a unified framework, Geodesic-PCA (G-PCA), extending beyond traditional manifolds to geodesic spaces. We develop robust and optimal theoretical results for G-PCA, and validate the reliability and effectiveness through extensive simulations. In real application, the proposed method is adopted to analyze brain corpus callosum and task-fMRI data, highlighting its potential in practice, such as neuroimaging.
