redundancy: Canonical Redundancy Analysis

In candisc: Visualizing Generalized Canonical Discriminant and Canonical Correlation Analysis

Canonical Redundancy Analysis

Description

Calculates indices of redundancy (Stewart & Love, 1968) from a canonical correlation analysis. These give the proportion of variances of the variables in each set (X and Y) which are accounted for by the variables in the other set through the canonical variates.

Usage

redundancy(object, ...)

## S3 method for class 'cancor.redundancy'
print(x, digits = max(getOption("digits") - 3, 3), ...)

Arguments

object	A "cancor" object
...	Other arguments
x	A "cancor.redundancy" for the print method.
digits	Number of digits to print

Details

The term "redundancy analysis" has a different interpretation and implementation in the environmental ecology literature, such as the vegan. In that context, each Y_i variable is regressed separately on the predictors in X, to give fitted values \widehat{Y} = [\widehat{Y}_1, \widehat{Y}_2, \dots. Then a PCA of \widehat{Y} is carried out to determine a reduced-rank structure of the predictions.

Value

An object of class "cancor.redundancy", a list with the following 5 components:

Xcan.redun	Canonical redundancies for the X variables, i.e., the total fraction of X variance accounted for by the Y variables through each canonical variate.
Ycan.redun	Canonical redundancies for the Y variables
X.redun	Total canonical redundancy for the X variables, i.e., the sum of Xcan.redun.
Y.redun	Total canonical redundancy for the Y variables
set.names	names for the X and Y sets of variables

Functions

• print(cancor.redundancy): print() method for "cancor.redundancy" objects.
