Factor analysis and information criteria.

Michele Costa (1996)

Qüestiió

Similarity:

In this paper the research of the true number of latent factors in exploratoty factor analysis model is studied through a comparison between the log likelihood ratio test statistics, the information criteria of Akaike, Schwarz and Hannah-Quinn and a procedure of cross-validation. In a simulation study the a priori knowledge of the exact factor structure is used to evaluate the goodness of the different methods.

The analysis of symmetry and asymmetry : orthogonality of decomposition of symmetry into quasi-symmetry and marginal symmetry for multi-way tables

Sadao Tomizawa, Kouji Tahata (2007)

Journal de la société française de statistique

Similarity:

For the analysis of square contingency tables, Caussinus (1965) proposed the quasi-symmetry model and gave the theorem that the symmetry model holds if and only if both the quasi-symmetry and the marginal homogeneity models hold. Bishop, Fienberg and Holland (1975, p.307) pointed out that the similar theorem holds for three-way tables. Bhapkar and Darroch (1990) gave the similar theorem for general multi-way tables. The purpose of this paper is (1) to review some topics on various symmetry...

The determination of factors in linear models of factor analysis

Petr Kratochvíl (1990)

Aplikace matematiky

Similarity:

The author shows that a decomposition of a covariance matrix = 𝐀𝐀 ' implies the corresponding model, i.e. the existence of factors f j such that a i j f j is true. The result is applied to the general linear model of factor analysis. A procedure for computing the factor score is proposed.

Properties of a singular value decomposition based dynamical model of gene expression data

Krzysztof Simek (2003)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Recently, data on multiple gene expression at sequential time points were analyzed using the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) as a means to capture dominant trends, called characteristic modes, followed by the fitting of a linear discrete-time dynamical system in which the expression values at a given time point are linear combinations of the values at a previous time point. We attempt to address several aspects of the method. To obtain the model, we formulate a nonlinear optimization...
