Houdini PCA Dejitter

The PCA Dejitter Node allows you to Remove Jitter from an animated Geometry using Principal Component Analysis.

This method denoises the motion of all points by analyzing the selected range and reducing the data to a lower dimensional space.

How to use:

Wire your jittery simulation/animation into the first input.

Tip:

For best results, it is highly recommended to wire a clean version of the animation or a reference pose into the second input. This can be your animated geo before simulation. This allows it to focus on what introduced the jitter and won't derive too far from the original animation.
