PCdiagplot: Diagnostic plot for principal components

In pcaPP: Robust PCA by Projection Pursuit

Diagnostic plot for principal components

Description

Computes Orthogonal Distances (OD) and Score Distances (SD) for already computed principal components using the projection pursuit technique.

Usage

PCdiagplot(x, PCobj, crit = c(0.975, 0.99, 0.999), ksel = NULL, plot = TRUE,
           plotbw = TRUE, raw = FALSE, colgrid = "black", ...)

Arguments

x	a numeric matrix or data frame which provides the data for the principal components analysis.
PCobj	a PCA object resulting from PCAproj or PCAgrid
crit	quantile(s) used for the critical value(s) for OD and SD
ksel	range for the number of PCs to be used in the plot; if NULL all PCs provided are used
plot	if TRUE a plot is generated, otherwise only the values are returned
plotbw	if TRUE the plot uses gray, otherwise color representation
raw	if FALSE, the distribution of the SD will be transformed to approach chisquare distribution, otherwise the raw values are reported and used for plotting
colgrid	the color used for the grid lines in the plot
...	additional graphics parameters as used in par

Details

Based on (robust) principal components, a diagnostics plot is made using Orthogonal Distance (OD) and Score Distance (SD). This plot can provide important information about the multivariate data structure.

Value

ODist	matrix with OD for each observation (rows) and each selected PC (cols)
SDist	matrix with SD for each observation (rows) and each selected PC (cols)
critOD	matrix with critical values for OD for each selected PC (rows) and each critical value (cols)
critSD	matrix with critical values for SD for each selected PC (rows) and each critical value (cols)

Examples

  # multivariate data with outliers
  library(mvtnorm)
  x <- rbind(rmvnorm(85, rep(0, 6), diag(c(5, rep(1,5)))),
             rmvnorm( 15, c(0, rep(20, 5)), diag(rep(1, 6))))
  # Here we calculate the principal components with PCAgrid
  pcrob <- PCAgrid(x, k=6)
  resrob <- PCdiagplot(x,pcrob,plotbw=FALSE)

  # compare with classical method:
  pcclass <- PCAgrid(x, k=6, method="sd")
  resclass <- PCdiagplot(x,pcclass,plotbw=FALSE)
