I have two questions:

1-Which method is appropriate for dimensionality reduction for feature extraction when missing some feature values?

2-Which textbook is the best source for the answer in (1)?

Denoising autoencoders will be your bet in this case. I don't have a book handy for this case. They are good at reconstruction and calculate a good latent representation. Just replace your missing feature with the mean or a fixed value.

You can look for probabilistic PCA, I heard somewhere that it can perform well with missing data.
