Abstract
The GeoPCA package is the first tool developed for multivariate analysis of dihedral angles based on principal component geodesics. Principal component geodesic analysis provides a natural generalization of principal component analysis for data distributed in non-Euclidean space, as in the case of angular data. GeoPCA presents projection of angular data on a sphere composed of the first two principal component geodesics, allowing clustering based on dihedral angles as opposed to Cartesian coordinates. It also provides a measure of the similarity between input structures based on only dihedral angles, in analogy to the root-mean-square deviation of atoms based on Cartesian coordinates. The principal component geodesic approach is shown herein to reproduce clusters of nucleotides observed in an η–θ plot. GeoPCA can be accessed via http://pca.limlab.ibms.sinica.edu.tw.
