Robust factor analysis for compositional data
Factor analysis as a dimension reduction technique is widely used with compositional data. Using the method for raw data or for improperly transformed data will, however, lead to biased results and consequently to misleading interpretations. Although some procedures, suitable for factor analysis with compositional data, were already developed, they require pre-knowledge of variable groups, or a...
متن کاملPenalized model-based clustering with unconstrained covariance matrices.
Clustering is one of the most useful tools for high-dimensional analysis, e.g., for microarray data. It becomes challenging in presence of a large number of noise variables, which may mask underlying clustering structures. Therefore, noise removal through variable selection is necessary. One effective way is regularization for simultaneous parameter estimation and variable selection in model-ba...
متن کاملAdaptive bandwidth selection in the long run covariance estimator of functional time series
In the analysis of functional time series an object which has seen increased use is the long run covariance function. It arises in several situations, including inference and dimension reduction techniques for high dimensional data, and new applications are being developed routinely. Given its relationship to the spectral density of finite dimensional time series, the long run covariance is nat...
متن کاملVariable Selection in Robust Joint Mean and Covariance Model for Longitudinal Data Analysis
In longitudinal data analysis, a correct specification of the within-subject covariance matrix cultivates an efficient estimation for mean regression coefficients. In this article, we consider robust variable selection method in a joint mean and covariance model. We propose a set of penalized robust generalized estimating equations to simultaneously estimate the mean regression coefficients, th...
متن کاملCovariance and PCA for Categorical Variables
Covariances from categorical variables are defined using a regular simplex expression for categories. The method follows the variance definition by Gini, and it gives the covariance as a solution of simultaneous equations. The calculated results give reasonable values for test data. A method of principal component analysis (RS-PCA) is also proposed using regular simplex expressions, which allow...
