Regularized generalized canonical correlation analysis (RGCCA) is a generalization of regularized canonical correlation analysis to three or more sets of variables. It constitutes a general framework for many multi-block data analysis methods. It combines the power of multi-block data analysis methods (maximization of well identified criteria) and…

Multiple-set canonical correlation analysis (Generalized CANO or GCANO for short) is an important technique because it subsumes a number of interesting multivariate data analysis techniques as special cases. More recently, it has also been recognized as an important technique for integrating information from multiple sources. In this paper, we…

The aim of this paper is to study the analysis of contingency tables with one heavyweight column or one heavyweight entry by taxicab correspondence analysis (TCA). Given that the mathematics of TCA is simpler than the mathematics of correspondence analysis (CA), the influence of one heavyweight column on the outputs of TCA is studied explicitly…

Two generalizations of canonical correlational analysis are developed. The partial, part, and bipartial canonical correlation coefficients are shown to be special cases of the generalization. Illustrative examples are provided. (Author/JKS)

It is shown that a weaker generalized inverse (Rao's g-inverse; Graybill's c-inverse) can be used in place of the Moore-Penrose generalized inverse to obtain multiple and canonical correlations from singular covariance matrices. Mathematical derivations are provided. (Author/JKS)

Orthogonal rotation of canonical variates is shown to preserve the major properties of the canonical solution and may increase its interpretability. Empirical illustrations are given. (Author/HG)

Discretized multivariate normal structural models are often estimated using multistage estimation procedures. The asymptotic properties of parameter estimates, standard errors, and tests of structural restrictions on thresholds and polychoric correlations are well known. It was not clear how to assess the overall discrepancy between the…

A variety of problems associated with the interpretation of traditional canonical correlation are discussed. A response surface approach is developed which allows for investigation of changes in the coefficients while maintaining an optimum canonical correlation value. Also, a discrete or constrained canonical correlation method is presented. (JKS)

Canonical analysis is frequently used in studies of relationships between sets of variables which are difficult to measure accurately, partly because of the true nature of the data and partly because of errors associated with the measurement instruments. Meredith's solution to the fallible data problem is examined. (Author/BJG)

The index of redundancy is a measure of association between a set of independent variables and a set of dependent variables. Properties and interpretations of redundancy variables, in a particular subset of the original variables, are discussed. (JKS)

An extension of Wollenberg's redundancy analysis (an alternative to canonical correlation) is proposed to derive Y-variates corresponding to the optimal X-variates. These variates are maximally correlated with the given X-variates, and depending upon the standardization chosen they also have certain properties of orthogonality. (Author/JKS)

A summary and a unified treatment of fully general computational solutions for two criteria for transforming two or more matrices to maximal agreement are provided. The two criteria--Maxdiff and Maxbet--have applications in the rotation of factor loading or configuration matrices to maximal agreement and the canonical correlation problem. (SLD)

A component method is presented for maximizing estimates of a statistical procedure called redundancy analysis. Relationships of redundancy analysis to multiple correlation and principal component analysis are pointed out. An elaborate example comparing canonical correlation analysis and redundancy analysis on artificial data is presented.…

Canonical correlation and redundancy analysis are two approaches to analyzing the interrelationships between two sets of measurements made on the same variables. A component method is presented which uses aspects of both approaches. An empirical example is also presented. (Author/JKS)

Extending the definitions of part and bipartial correlation to sets of variates, the notion of part and bipartial canonical correlation analysis are developed and illustrated. (Author)
