SuperPCA is a new algorithm for high‑dimensional principal component analysis that exploits an approximate eigenspace of the sample covariance matrix. The authors show that the subspace spanned by several leading eigenvectors contains useful signal information long before individual eigenvectors converge, and they derive posteriori bounds on the angle between this subspace and the true signal subspace. By using only a small number of subsampled coordinates, SuperPCA can achieve up to a ten‑fold improvement in accuracy over classical PCA while reducing data acquisition costs, especially when the signals are approximately sparse.

arXiv:2603. 11308v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a cornerstone of dimensionality reduction, yet its classical formulation relies critically on second-order moments and is therefore fragile in the presence of heavy-tailed data and impulsive noise.

The paper presents provable guarantees for a spectral method that recovers binary node labels on signed graphs with edge‑flip noise. It provides graph‑structure‑agnostic bounds on approximate inference accuracy and maximum angle deviation, using matrix concentration and eigenvector perturbation techniques. The results connect to the Cheeger constant and are validated with synthetic experiments, marking the first theoretical analysis of this spectral approach.

The paper tackles two key gaps in streaming PCA using Oja's algorithm: it establishes sharp operator‑norm convergence for general‑rank subspaces under sub‑Gaussian data, and it provides distributional inference for the resulting subspace estimator. The authors remove non‑vanishing remainder terms from existing analyses, achieving rates that match minimax bounds in both dense‑tail and sparse‑tail regimes. They further develop a linearization of Oja’s iterates, enabling high‑dimensional Gaussian approximations and an online multiplier bootstrap for practical inference.
