\name{leverage} \title{Extract leverages of a PCA model} \description{The leverages of PCA model indicate how much influence each observation has on the PCA model. Observations with high leverage has caused the principal components to rotate towards them. It can be used to extract both "unimportant" observations as well as picking potential outliers.} \details{Defined as \eqn{Tr(T(T'T)^{-1}T')}{Tr(T(T'T)^(-1)T')}} \value{The observation leverages as a numeric vector} \references{Introduction to Multi- and Megavariate Data Analysis using Projection Methods (PCA and PLS), L.
