We propose functional multiple-set canonical correlation analysis for exploring associations among multiple sets of functions. The proposed method includes functional canonical correlation analysis as a special case when only two sets of functions are considered. As in classical multiple-set canonical correlation analysis, computationally, the…

In many research domains different pieces of information are collected regarding the same set of objects. Each piece of information constitutes a data block, and all these (coupled) blocks have the object mode in common. When analyzing such data, an important aim is to obtain an overall picture of the structure underlying the whole set of coupled…

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…

Minimization of the within-cluster sums of squares (WCSS) is one of the most important optimization criteria in cluster analysis. Although cluster analysis modules in commercial software packages typically use heuristic methods for this criterion, optimal approaches can be computationally feasible for problems of modest size. This paper presents a…

Data are often a continuous function of a variable such as time observed over some interval. One or more such functions might be observed for each subject. The extension of classical data analytic techniques to such functions is discussed. (Author/JKS)

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)

A multivariate reduced-rank growth curve model is proposed that extends the univariate reduced rank growth curve model to the multivariate case, in which several response variables are measured over multiple time points. The proposed model allows us to investigate the relationships among a number of response variables in a more parsimonious way…

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)

Redundancy analysis is an attempt to provide nonsymmetric measures of the dependence of one set of variables on another set. This paper attempts to clarify the nature of redundancy analysis and its relationships to canonical correlation and multivariate multiple linear regression. (Author/JKS)

An information-theoretic framework is used to analyze the knowledge content in multivariate cross-classified data. Proposes measures based on the information concept, including the knowledge content of a cross classification, its terseness, and the separability of one variable. Presents applications for situations when classical analysis is…

Interpretations regarding the effects of exogenous and endogenous variables on endogenous variables in linear structural equation systems depend upon the convergence of a matrix power series. The test for convergence developed by Joreskog and Sorbom is shown to be only sufficient, not necessary and sufficient. (Author/JKS)

Repeated measures designs have traditionally been analyzed by the univariate mixed model approach, in which the repeated measures effect is tested against an error term based on the subject by treatment interaction. This paper considers an extension of this analysis to designs in which the individual repeated measures are multivariate. (Author/JKS)

There are two main theories with respect to the development of spelling ability: the stage model and the model of overlapping waves. In this paper exploratory model based clustering will be used to analyze the responses of more than 3500 pupils to subsets of 245 items. To evaluate the two theories, the resulting clusters will be ordered along a…
