redundancy: Canonical Redundancy Analysis

Description

Calculates indices of redundancy (Stewart & Love, 1968) from a canonical correlation analysis. These give the proportion of variances of the variables in each set (X and Y) which are accounted for by the variables in the other set through the canonical variates.

Usage

redundancy(object, ...)
# S3 method for cancor.redundancy
print(x, digits = max(getOption("digits") - 3, 3), ...)

Arguments

object

A "cancor" object

x

A "cancor.redundancy" for the print method.

digits

Number of digits to print

…

Other arguments

Value

An object of class "cancor.redundancy", a list with the following 5 components:

Xcan.redun

Canonical redundancies for the X variables, i.e., the total fraction of X variance accounted for by the Y variables through each canonical variate.

Ycan.redun

Canonical redundancies for the Y variables

X.redun

Total canonical redundancy for the X variables, i.e., the sum of Xcan.redun.

Y.redun

Total canonical redundancy for the Y variables

set.names

names for the X and Y sets of variables

Details

None yet.
