Perform a (multi)collinearity diagnostic of a correlation matrix of predictor variables using several indicators, as shown by Olivoto et al. (2017).
colindiag(.data, ..., by = NULL, n = NULL)
The data to be analyzed. It must be a symmetric correlation
matrix, or a data frame, possible with grouped data passed from
group_by()
.
Variables to use in the correlation. If ...
is null then
all the numeric variables from .data
are used. It must be a single
variable name or a comma-separated list of unquoted variables names.
One variable (factor) to compute the function by. It is a shortcut
to group_by()
. To compute the statistics by more than
one grouping variable use that function.
If a correlation matrix is provided, then n
is the number of
objects used to compute the correlation coefficients.
If .data
is a grouped data passed from group_by()
then the results will be returned into a list-column of data frames.
cormat A symmetric Pearson's coefficient correlation matrix between the variables
corlist A hypothesis testing for each of the correlation coefficients
evalevet The eigenvalues with associated eigenvectors of the correlation matrix
VIF The Variance Inflation Factors, being the diagonal elements of the inverse of the correlation matrix.
CN The Condition Number of the correlation matrix, given by the ratio between the largest and smallest eigenvalue.
det The determinant of the correlation matrix.
ncorhigh Number of correlation greather than |0.8|.
largest_corr The largest correlation (in absolute value) observed.
smallest_corr The smallest correlation (in absolute value) observed.
weight_var The variables with largest eigenvector (largest weight) in the eigenvalue of smallest value, sorted in decreasing order.
