In PCA, if an Eigenvalue is close to zero, it indicates that the corresponding Eigenvector may ________.

  • be a principal component
  • be discarded
  • be of high magnitude
  • explain high variance
If an Eigenvalue in PCA is close to zero, it means that the corresponding Eigenvector (principal direction) may "be discarded" as it explains very little variance within the data. This can help in reducing dimensionality while retaining essential information.
