PLS-CA: Partial Least Squares Canonical Analysis

Description

Performs partial least squares canonical analysis for two blocks of data. Compared to PLSR2, the blocks of variables in PLS-CA play a symmetric role (i.e. there is neither predictors nor responses)

Usage

  plsca(X, Y, comps = NULL, scaled = TRUE)

Arguments

X	A numeric matrix or data frame (X-block) with more than one variable. No missing data are allowed
Y	A numeric matrix or data frame (Y-block) with more than one variable. No missing data are allowed
comps	The number of extracted PLS components (NULL by default) When comps=NULL the number of components is determined by taking the minimum between the number of columns from X and Y.
scaled	A logical value indicating whether scaling data should be performed (TRUE by default). #'When scaled=TRUE the data is scaled to standardized values (mean=0, variance=1). Otherwise the data will only be centered (mean=0).

Value

An object of class "plsca", basically a list with the following elements:

x.scores	scores of the X-block (also known as T components)
x.wgs	weights of the X-block
x.loads	loadings of the X-block
y.scores	scores of the Y-block (also known as U components)
y.wgs	weights of the Y-block
y.loads	loadings of the Y-block
cor.xt	correlations between X and T
cor.yu	correlations between Y and U
cor.tu	correlations between T and U
cor.xu	correlations between X and U
cor.yt	correlations between Y and T
R2X	explained variance of X by T
R2Y	explained variance of Y by U
com.xu	communality of X with U
com.yt	communality of Y with T
