One New Method for the Rotation in Discriminant Analysis
Keywords:
canonical discriminant analysis, centroid rotationAbstract
Different methods of discriminant weights and structure matrices rotation has been applied in canonical discriminant analysis to facilatate the interpretation of the discriminant functions. A new ("Centrovax") method of discriminant structure and discriminant weights matrices rotation has been proposed in this paper. The proposed method is based on the rotation of group centroid matrix based on the significant discriminant functions. A program implementation of proposed algorithm has been written in SPSS MATRIX language. An illustrative numerical example of use of the method has been presented.
