Description

Utility function to use to set the control arguments of kunfolding

Usage

mdscontrol(
  model = "ordinal",
  init = "torgerson",
  transf = "primary",
  userinit = NULL,
  w = NULL,
  minstress = 1e-05,
  itermax = 500,
  printscr = TRUE,
  spline.degree = 2,
  spline.intKnots = 2,
  relax = FALSE,
  modulus = 1
)

Arguments

model	Specifies MDS model. One among "ordnal (default)" or "metric"
init	Initial configuration. One among "torgerson" (degault), "random" or "user"
transf	The transformation. One among "primary" (default), "secondary","tertiary","spline","ratio","interval","none"
userinit	The user initial configuration if "init" has been set as "user"
w	The set of weigths. Default: NULL
minstress	the minimum stress (for stress method). Default 1e-5
itermax	Maximum number if iterations. Default 500
printscr	Display the summary of the model. Default TRUE
spline.degree	Degree of spline transformation. Default 2
spline.intKnots	Interior knots. default 2
relax	Relax the solution. Default FALSE
modulus	Modulus. Default 1
