Compare Cross Decomposition Methods

Introduction

In this lab, we will learn how to use different cross decomposition algorithms such as PLS Canonical, PLS Regression, and CCA to extract directions of covariance from multivariate datasets.

VM Tips

After the VM startup is done, click the top left corner to switch to the Notebook tab to access Jupyter Notebook for practice.

Sometimes, you may need to wait a few seconds for Jupyter Notebook to finish loading. The validation of operations cannot be automated because of limitations in Jupyter Notebook.

If you face issues during learning, feel free to ask Labby. Provide feedback after the session, and we will promptly resolve the problem for you.

Dataset Creation

We create a dataset with two multivariate covarying two-dimensional datasets, X and Y. We then extract the directions of covariance, i.e. the components of each dataset that explain the most shared variance between both datasets.

import numpy as np

n = 500
## 2 latents vars:
l1 = np.random.normal(size=n)
l2 = np.random.normal(size=n)

latents = np.array([l1, l1, l2, l2]).T
X = latents + np.random.normal(size=4 * n).reshape((n, 4))
Y = latents + np.random.normal(size=4 * n).reshape((n, 4))

X_train = X[: n // 2]
Y_train = Y[: n // 2]
X_test = X[n // 2 :]
Y_test = Y[n // 2 :]

print("Corr(X)")
print(np.round(np.corrcoef(X.T), 2))
print("Corr(Y)")
print(np.round(np.corrcoef(Y.T), 2))

Canonical PLS

We use the PLS Canonical algorithm to transform the data. We then create a scatter plot of the scores.

from sklearn.cross_decomposition import PLSCanonical

plsca = PLSCanonical(n_components=2)
plsca.fit(X_train, Y_train)
X_train_r, Y_train_r = plsca.transform(X_train, Y_train)
X_test_r, Y_test_r = plsca.transform(X_test, Y_test)

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

## On diagonal plot X vs Y scores on each components
plt.figure(figsize=(12, 8))
plt.subplot(221)
plt.scatter(X_train_r[:, 0], Y_train_r[:, 0], label="train", marker="o", s=25)
plt.scatter(X_test_r[:, 0], Y_test_r[:, 0], label="test", marker="o", s=25)
plt.xlabel("x scores")
plt.ylabel("y scores")
plt.title(
    "Comp. 1: X vs Y (test corr = %.2f)"
    % np.corrcoef(X_test_r[:, 0], Y_test_r[:, 0])[0, 1]
)
plt.xticks(())
plt.yticks(())
plt.legend(loc="best")

plt.subplot(224)
plt.scatter(X_train_r[:, 1], Y_train_r[:, 1], label="train", marker="o", s=25)
plt.scatter(X_test_r[:, 1], Y_test_r[:, 1], label="test", marker="o", s=25)
plt.xlabel("x scores")
plt.ylabel("y scores")
plt.title(
    "Comp. 2: X vs Y (test corr = %.2f)"
    % np.corrcoef(X_test_r[:, 1], Y_test_r[:, 1])[0, 1]
)
plt.xticks(())
plt.yticks(())
plt.legend(loc="best")

## Off diagonal plot components 1 vs 2 for X and Y
plt.subplot(222)
plt.scatter(X_train_r[:, 0], X_train_r[:, 1], label="train", marker="*", s=50)
plt.scatter(X_test_r[:, 0], X_test_r[:, 1], label="test", marker="*", s=50)
plt.xlabel("X comp. 1")
plt.ylabel("X comp. 2")
plt.title(
    "X comp. 1 vs X comp. 2 (test corr = %.2f)"
    % np.corrcoef(X_test_r[:, 0], X_test_r[:, 1])[0, 1]
)
plt.legend(loc="best")
plt.xticks(())
plt.yticks(())

plt.subplot(223)
plt.scatter(Y_train_r[:, 0], Y_train_r[:, 1], label="train", marker="*", s=50)
plt.scatter(Y_test_r[:, 0], Y_test_r[:, 1], label="test", marker="*", s=50)
plt.xlabel("Y comp. 1")
plt.ylabel("Y comp. 2")
plt.title(
    "Y comp. 1 vs Y comp. 2 , (test corr = %.2f)"
    % np.corrcoef(Y_test_r[:, 0], Y_test_r[:, 1])[0, 1]
)
plt.legend(loc="best")
plt.xticks(())
plt.yticks(())
plt.show()

PLS Regression with Multivariate Response (PLS2)

We use the PLS Regression algorithm with multivariate response to estimate the values of a matrix B. We then compare the estimated B with the true B.

n = 1000
q = 3
p = 10
X = np.random.normal(size=n * p).reshape((n, p))
B = np.array([[1, 2] + [0] * (p - 2)] * q).T
## each Yj = 1*X1 + 2*X2 + noize
Y = np.dot(X, B) + np.random.normal(size=n * q).reshape((n, q)) + 5

from sklearn.cross_decomposition import PLSRegression

pls2 = PLSRegression(n_components=3)
pls2.fit(X, Y)
print("True B (such that: Y = XB + Err)")
print(B)
## compare pls2.coef_ with B
print("Estimated B")
print(np.round(pls2.coef_, 1))
pls2.predict(X)

PLS Regression with Univariate Response (PLS1)

We use the PLS Regression algorithm with univariate response to estimate the values of beta.

n = 1000
p = 10
X = np.random.normal(size=n * p).reshape((n, p))
y = X[:, 0] + 2 * X[:, 1] + np.random.normal(size=n * 1) + 5
pls1 = PLSRegression(n_components=3)
pls1.fit(X, y)
## note that the number of components exceeds 1 (the dimension of y)
print("Estimated betas")
print(np.round(pls1.coef_, 1))

CCA (PLS mode B with symmetric deflation)

We use the CCA algorithm to transform the data.

cca = CCA(n_components=2)
cca.fit(X_train, Y_train)
X_train_r, Y_train_r = cca.transform(X_train, Y_train)
X_test_r, Y_test_r = cca.transform(X_test, Y_test)

Summary

In this lab, we learned how to use different cross decomposition algorithms to extract directions of covariance from multivariate datasets. We created a dataset, transformed the data using PLS Canonical, PLS Regression, and CCA, and estimated the values of matrices and betas. We also created scatter plots to visualize the scores of components.
