What is the Feature Engineering multi-solver?

Feature Engineering is a guided workflow that chains 2 individual PolySim solvers into one end-to-end analysis, piping each result into the next step.

Yes. Every step runs entirely in your browser using real numerics — no install, no account, no cloud cost. Custom or private solver packs are available as a paid service.

Spread (x)

PCA finds the directions along which data varies most. The eigenvectors of the covariance matrix are the principal components (cyan = most variance, green = least), and their eigenvalues are the variances along each. Projecting onto the top components is the basis of dimensionality reduction.

Governing equation

C v = λ v, \frac{λ _{1}}{λ _{1} + λ _{2}} = \frac{0.00}{0.00} = 0.00

Reading this result: PC1 explains 0% of the variance here; the stronger the correlation between features, the more PCA concentrates information on that first component.

Ordinary least squares finds the line that minimizes the sum of squared vertical residuals (the gray drop-lines). R² measures the fraction of variance the line explains — 1 is perfect, 0 is useless. Add noise or remove points to watch the fit and R² degrade.

Governing equation

\overset{y}{^} = 0.00 + 0.00 x, β_{1} = \frac{\sum ( x - x ˉ ) ( y - y ˉ )}{\sum ( x - x ˉ ) ^{2}}, R^{2} = 0.00

Reading this result: R² = 0.00: noise (2) swamps the signal, so least squares can barely tell the slope from flat — adding data points would tighten the estimate.
