Factor analysis
only captures pairwise
|
|
|
correlations
between components of the data.
|
|
|
|
– |
It
only depends on the covariance matrix of
|
|
|
|
the
data.
|
|
|
|
– |
It
completely ignores higher-order statistics
|
|
|
|
• |
Consider
the dataset: 111, 100, 010, 001
|
|
|
|
• |
This
has no pairwise correlations but it does have
|
|
strong
third order structure.
