simpls.fit: Sijmen de Jong's SIMPLS

In pls: Partial Least Squares and Principal Component Regression

Sijmen de Jong's SIMPLS

Description

Fits a PLSR model with the SIMPLS algorithm.

Usage

simpls.fit(X, Y, ncomp, center = TRUE, stripped = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

X	a matrix of observations. NAs and Infs are not allowed.
Y	a vector or matrix of responses. NAs and Infs are not allowed.
ncomp	the number of components to be used in the modelling.
center	logical, determines if the X and Y matrices are mean centered or not. Default is to perform mean centering.
stripped	logical. If TRUE the calculations are stripped as much as possible for speed; this is meant for use with cross-validation or simulations when only the coefficients are needed. Defaults to FALSE.
...	other arguments. Currently ignored.

Details

This function should not be called directly, but through the generic functions plsr or mvr with the argument method="simpls". SIMPLS is much faster than the NIPALS algorithm, especially when the number of X variables increases, but gives slightly different results in the case of multivariate Y. SIMPLS truly maximises the covariance criterion. According to de Jong, the standard PLS2 algorithms lie closer to ordinary least-squares regression where a precise fit is sought; SIMPLS lies closer to PCR with stable predictions.

Value

A list containing the following components is returned:

coefficients	an array of regression coefficients for 1, ..., ncomp components. The dimensions of coefficients are c(nvar, npred, ncomp) with nvar the number of X variables and npred the number of variables to be predicted in Y.
scores	a matrix of scores.
loadings	a matrix of loadings.
Yscores	a matrix of Y-scores.
Yloadings	a matrix of Y-loadings.
projection	the projection matrix used to convert X to scores.
Xmeans	a vector of means of the X variables.
Ymeans	a vector of means of the Y variables.
fitted.values	an array of fitted values. The dimensions of fitted.values are c(nobj, npred, ncomp) with nobj the number samples and npred the number of Y variables.
residuals	an array of regression residuals. It has the same dimensions as fitted.values.
Xvar	a vector with the amount of X-variance explained by each component.
Xtotvar	Total variance in X.

If stripped is TRUE, only the components coefficients, Xmeans and Ymeans are returned.
