Commandeur, Jacques J. F.; Groenen, Patrick J. F.; Meulman, Jacqueline J. – Psychometrika, 1999
Presents two methods for including weights in distance-based nonlinear multivariate data analysis. One method assigns weights to the objects, while the other is concerned with differential weighing of groups of variables. Discusses applications of these weighting schemes and proposed an algorithm to minimize the corresponding loss function. (SLD)
