InitialTransform: Initial transformation of data

In MultBiplotR: Multivariate Analysis Using Biplots in R

Initial transformation of data

Description

Initial transformation of data before the construction of a biplot. (or any other technique)

Usage

InitialTransform(X, sup.rows = NULL, sup.cols = NULL, 
InitTransform = "None", transform = "Standardize columns", 
grouping = NULL)

Arguments

X	Original Raw Data Matrix
sup.rows	Supplementary or illustrative rows.
sup.cols	Supplementary or illustrative columns.
InitTransform	Pevious transformation (to use. See details)none or log.
transform	Transformation to use. See details.
grouping	factor to stadadize with the within groups variability

Details

Possible Transformations are:

1.- "Raw Data": When no transformation is required.

2.- "Substract the global mean": Eliminate an eefect common to all the observations

3.- "Double centering" : Interaction residuals. When all the elements of the table are comparable. Useful for AMMI models.

4.- "Column centering": Remove the column means.

5.- "Standardize columns": Remove the column means and divide by its standard deviation.

6.- "Row centering": Remove the row means.

7.- "Standardize rows": Divide each row by its standard deviation.

8.- "Divide by the column means and center": The resulting dispersion is the coefficient of variation.

9.- "Normalized residuals from independence" for a contingency table.

The transformation can be provided to the function by using the string beetwen the quotes or just the associated number.

The supplementary rows and columns are not used to calculate the parameters (means, standard deviations, etc). Some of the transformations are not compatible with supplementary data.

Value

A list with the following components

X	Transformed data matrix
sup.rows	Transformed supplementary rows
sup.rows	Transformed supplementary columns
