## Exponential Family PCA

### Exponential Family

Following @forster, we define the exponential family as the set of distributions with densities of the form

$$
p_\theta(x) = \exp(\theta \cdot x - G(\theta))
$$

where $\theta$ is the natural parameter and $G$ is the log-partition function.

### Link Function

The link function $g(\theta)$ connects the natural parameter $\theta$ to the mean parameter $\mu$ of an exponential family distribution. It is defined as the gradient of the log-partition function $G(\theta)$:
