How to know if Canonical Correlation analysis is overfitting?

Yes, there's an interesting geometric interpretation that easily shows that if $n \le p + q$, some of the canonical correlations will become 1. In short and using your definitions of $X$ and $Y$, thi …

How does Canonical Time Warping help in time alignment?

I think you raise a valid question, which is that "without an initial time-aligned pair of datasets, how can CCA perform well?" My guess is that the answer is that "CCA doesn't perform well in the f …

How to visualize what canonical correlation analysis does (in comparison to what principal c...

This answer doesn't provide a visual aid for understanding CCA, however a good geometric interpretation of CCA is presented in Chapter 12 of Anderson-1958 [1]. The gist of it is as follows: Consider …
