In shapes: Statistical Shape Analysis

Principal Nested Shape Spaces from PCA

Description

Approximation of Principal Nested Shapes Spaces using PCA

Usage

pns4pc(x, sphere.type = "seq.test", alpha = 0.1, R = 100, nlast.small.sphere = 1,n.pc=2)

Arguments

x	k x m x n array of landmark data.
sphere.type	a character string specifying the type of sphere fitting method. "seq.test" specifies sequential tests to decide either "small" or "great"; "small" specifies Principal Nested SMALL Sphere; "great" specifies Principal Nested GREAT Sphere (radius pi/2); "BIC" specifies BIC statistic to decide either "small" or "great"; and "bi.sphere" specifies Principal Nested GREAT Sphere for the first part and Principal Nested SMALL Sphere for The default is "seq.test".
alpha	significance level (0 < alpha < 1) used when sphere.type = "seq.test". The default is 0.1.
R	the number of bootstrap samples to be evaluated for the sequential test. The default is 100.
nlast.small.sphere	the number of small spheres in the finishing part used when sphere.type = "bi.sphere".
n.pc	the number of PC scores to be used (n.pc >= 2)

Value

A list with components

PNS	the output of the function pns
GPAout	the result of GPA
spheredata	transformed spherical data from the PC scores
percent	proportion of variances explained.
