Finding Principal components from eigen vector matrix

1 view (last 30 days)
I am using the following code to find the principal components train_set=xlsread('xdata.xlsx'); coef=pca(train_set); c=cov(coef); [V,D]=eig(c); here train_set is 100x6 data matrix and coef is 6x6 matrix c is also 6x6 matrix v is also a 6x6 matrix which is the eigen vector and D is the diagonal eigen value matrix.
I am trying to find the 6 principal components and I cannot seem to find how? I know I am supposed to find the greatest eigen vector corresponding to the eigen value as my first principal component. I would appreciate if somebody could help me with this.

There are multiple answers related to your question.

Have you checked here.

From the last part, you can follow the steps to finding the PCA components from eig.

% dd are the eigenvalue for both L=dbx'*dbx and C=dbx*dbx';
[vv dd]=eig(L);
