| dudi.mix {ade4} | R Documentation |
performs a multivariate analysis with mixed quantitative variables and factors.
dudi.mix(df, add.square = FALSE, scannf = TRUE, nf = 2)
df |
a data frame with mixed type variables (quantitative, factor and ordered) |
add.square |
a logical value indicating whether the squares of quantitative variables should be added |
scannf |
a logical value indicating whether the eigenvalues bar plot should be displayed |
nf |
if scannf FALSE, an integer indicating the number of kept axes |
If df contains only quantitative variables, this is equivalent to a normed PCA.
If df contains only factors, this is equivalent to a MCA.
Ordered factors are replaced by poly(x,deg=2).
This analysis generalizes the Hill and Smith method.
The principal components of this analysis are centered and normed vectors maximizing the sum of the:
squared correlation coefficients with quantitative variables
squared multiple correlation coefficients with polynoms
correlation ratios with factors.
Returns a list of class mix and dudi (see dudi) containing also
index |
a factor giving the type of each variable : f = factor, o = ordered, q = quantitative |
assign |
a factor indicating the initial variable for each column of the transformed table |
cr |
a data frame giving for each variable and each score: |
