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.
