Researchers have introduced Variance-Preserving Orthogonal Selection (VPOS), a novel greedy framework for unsupervised feature selection. VPOS operates within the weighted PCA loading space and uses null-space deflation to project out the variance direction of selected features, ensuring subsequent selections cover orthogonal covariance structures. This method provably reduces the loading matrix rank by one at each step and connects to monotone submodular maximization. VPOS achieves lower reconstruction MSE and is significantly faster than existing graph-based methods, with deflation identified as the key driver of performance improvement. AI
