In PP3: Three-Dimensional Exploratory Projection Pursuit

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

Computes the projection index or its derivative with respect to the input projection directions. Function is a simple wrapper for call to PP3ix3FromTU or PP3ix3dvsFromTU.

1 2	PP3fastIX3(Pvec, the.init, maxrow, k, maxcol, n, text) PP3slowDF3(Pvec, the.init, maxrow, k, maxcol, n, text)

`Pvec`	The projection direction. Here, a three-dimensional projection direction (matrix with three columns) is stacked into a single vector.
`the.init`	Projection index initialization info. From the function `PP3init`
`maxrow`	Maximum number of rows (usually equal to `k`) or variables.
`k`	Actual number of rows/variables.
`maxcol`	Maximum number of observations (usually equal to `n`).
`n`	Number of observations.
`text`	Integer. If set to 1 then the FORTRAN code prints out information messages. If set to 0, then it doesn't.

PP3fastIX3 computes the index only, and PP3slowDF3 computes the derivatives of the projection index with respect to the current projection direction (or, rather the Gram-Schmidt orthonormalised version). The word ‘slow’ does not mean slow, but refers to the fact that this routine also computes the projection index, but slowly because the derivatives are also being computed.

PP3fastIX3 computes the projection index with respect to the input projection direction. PP3slowDF3 computes a numeric vector, of the same length as Pvec containing the derivative of the projection index with respect to every entry of Pvec.

# Not designed for simple user use

# Since these functions are simple wrappers for PP3ix3FromTU and
# PP3ix3dvsFromTU, please consult their help functions. All these
# functions do is take a single projection vector and then split it into
# three to provide three separate projection vectors for the called
# functions.
