orthprocr: Orthogonal Procrustes Analysis

In cds: Constrained Dual Scaling for Detecting Response Styles

Description

Simple function to rotate matrix X so that it matches the target matrix Z as closely as possible, by minimizing ||Z - XQ|| where Z and X are of the same size and Q is an orthogonal matrix. The algorithm is based on the singular value decomposition (SVD) (see e.g. the reference).

Usage

orthprocr(Z, X)

Arguments

Z	The target matrix
X	The matrix to be rotated, which must be of the same size as Z.

Value

A list with the following 2 elements:

Q	The rotation matrix
XQ	The matrix X after rotation
