It seems like values are different using the forumla. I can provide a test
case if you need



i tried this:
i.pca in=lsat7_2000_10,lsat7_2000_20 out=mypca

Rescaling to range 0,255...
 100%
Eigen values, (vectors), and [percent importance]:
PC1    436.48 ( 0.6640, 0.7477) [98.84%]
PC2      5.13 (-0.7477, 0.6640) [ 1.16%]


here only first column of eigen vector is important right?

But let me ask does eigen values and percent of importance doesnt have any
role?

here when running the above i.pca i get mypca.1 and mypca.2
P1 and P2 are first pixel row=0, col=0 of mypca.1 and mypca.2 respectively
and mean is the mean of lsat7_2000_10

output is the output obtained from the equation --> (X = P * eigenvector(P,
X) + P * eigenvector(Q, X) + mean(B1) )

and input is the pixel value of lsat7_2000_10 @ row=0, col=0


P1=  21
P2=  112
mean=    79.925
output=  138.4471
input=   72

Any thoughts?
