Compare cross decomposition methods

Simple usage of various cross decomposition algorithms:

• PLSCanonical

• PLSRegression, with multivariate response, a.k.a. PLS2

• PLSRegression, with univariate response, a.k.a. PLS1

• CCA

Given 2 multivariate covarying two-dimensional datasets, X, and Y, PLS extracts the ‘directions of covariance’, i.e. the components of each datasets that explain the most shared variance between both datasets. This is apparent on the scatterplot matrix display: components 1 in dataset X and dataset Y are maximally correlated (points lie around the first diagonal). This is also true for components 2 in both dataset, however, the correlation across datasets for different components is weak: the point cloud is very spherical.

Dataset based latent variables model

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))

Corr(X)
[[ 1.    0.44 -0.06 -0.01]
 [ 0.44  1.   -0.01 -0.06]
 [-0.06 -0.01  1.    0.5 ]
 [-0.01 -0.06  0.5   1.  ]]
Corr(Y)
[[ 1.    0.47 -0.05  0.02]
 [ 0.47  1.   -0.01  0.03]
 [-0.05 -0.01  1.    0.47]
 [ 0.02  0.03  0.47  1.  ]]

Canonical (symmetric) PLS

Transform data

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)

Scatter plot of scores

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# On diagonal plot X vs Y scores on each components

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(())
