Goodness of fit of biplots and correspondence analysis
双标图与对应分析的拟合优度
The present paper examines proportional goodness of fit to variables recorded on individuals, the variances and covariances of the variables, and the form and distances between individuals. No single plot displays all three optimally in the sense of least squares. However, even aspects which are non‐optimally fitted by biplots and Benzécri plots often closely preserve the optimal fit. This is shown by means of a preservation‐of‐fit function which depends on the type of…
