sigPCA: Statistical Significance Testing for Principal Components

Identifies principal components whose eigenvalues exceed those expected under noise. Implements analytical thresholds derived from the Marchenko-Pastur distribution (Marchenko and Pastur, 1967) <doi:10.1070/SM1967v001n04ABEH001994> and empirical permutation tests, and provides functions for visualizing observed and null eigenvalue spectra.
