orderident: A posteriori factor order identification

Description

orderident provides a (very ad-hoc) method for identifying the ordering of the factors after running the (unrestricted) MCMC sampler by ordering according to the argument method. Not recommended for production code (often unstable).

Usage

orderident(x, method = "averagemeanabs")

Arguments

x
Object of class 'fsvdraws', usually resulting from a call to fsvsample.
method
Currently only "averagemeanabs" is supported. This mean that the factors are ordered according to their average mean absolute loadings size.

Value

Returns an object of class 'fsvdraws' with adjusted ordering.
