1.1.0Interpreting the HJ-Biplot graphic
The HJ-Biplot method is based on simple geometric concepts. Below those basic interpretational rules are presented:
(i) the distances among row markers are interpreted as an inverse function of similarities, in such a way that closer markers (objects) are more similar;
(ii) the lengths of the column markers (vectors) approximate the standard deviation of the variables;
(iii) the cosines of the angles among the column vectors approximate the correlations among variables in such a way that small acute angles are associated with variables with high positive correlations; obtuse angles near to the straight angle are associated with variables with high negative correlations and right angles are associated with non-correlated variables. In the same way, the cosines of the angles among the variable markers and the axes (Principal Components) approximate the correlations between them;
(iv) the order of the orthogonal projections of the row markers (points) onto a column marker (vector) approximates the order of the row elements (values) in that column.Details
The program guides the user through four phases:
1- Load data (mandatory). From txt files, objects R, clipboard or Excel. Try matrices of 2-way and 3-way.
2- Data format (optional).
3- Selection of variables and individuals for biplot graphics.
4- Selecting Options for the chart. If 3-way data, options for trajectories.References
