eigenRef: Reference eigen value

In FactoInvestigate: Automatic Description of Factorial Analysis

Reference eigen value

Description

Compute the eigen values of random datasets, with the hypothesis of independence.

Usage

eigenRef(res, dim = NULL, q = 0.95, time = "10000L", parallel = TRUE)

Arguments

res	an object of class PCA, CA or MCA
dim	a numerical vector giving the factorial dimensions for with to compute the eigenvalues calculation.
q	the quantile of computed values to use as reference value (ie. the confidence about the signification of dimensions)
time	a character indicating the loop condition. This string is made of a number and a letter coupled. The number X with letter L means to compute X datasets exactly. The number X with letter s means to compute as many datasets as possible during approximativley X seconds.
parallel	a boolean : if TRUE, the computation uses map reduce on the processor cores to increase the performance. Useful for huge datasets

Value

datasets	the number of random datasets simulated.
quantile	the quantile used for the reference definition.
inertia	the reference inertia for the dimensions declared.
