fiveWines4RotationR Documentation

5 wines are described by sensory and chemistry variables.

Description

fiveWines4Rotation: Five wines are described by two blocks of variables: Sensory and Chemistry.

Usage

data("fiveWines4Rotation")

Format

A list with two matrices:

  • Xmat.Chemistry The chemistry properties (4 variables)

  • Ymat.Sensory The sensory properties (3 variables).

Details

The five (rather fictitious) wines are described by two blocks of variables corresponding (respectively) to their sensory and chemistry properties. This data set has been used to illustrate (Varimax) rotation for factor analytic methods and also in several papers about Partial Least Square Regression (PLSR).
