Written by the co-developer of this methodology, \u003cstrong\u003eMultiple Factor Analysis by Example Using R \u003c\/strong\u003ebrings together the theoretical and methodological aspects of MFA. It also includes examples of applications and details of how to implement MFA using an R package (FactoMineR).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe first two chapters cover the basic factorial analysis methods of principal component analysis (PCA) and multiple correspondence analysis (MCA). The next chapter discusses factor analysis for mixed data (FAMD), a little-known method for simultaneously analyzing quantitative and qualitative variables without group distinction. Focusing on MFA, subsequent chapters examine the key points of MFA in the context of quantitative variables as well as qualitative and mixed data. The author also compares MFA and Procrustes analysis and presents a natural extension of MFA: hierarchical MFA (HMFA). The final chapter explores several elements of matrix calculation and metric spaces used in the book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e J駻e Pag鑚\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1482205475\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781482205473\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/14\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.10w x 0.90d","brand":"J駻e Pag鑚","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44123981807871,"sku":"9781482205473","price":115.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e8ce59c9-18c4-4f2d-bd09-e7cfb2723575.jpg?v=1687434047","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/multiple-factor-analysis-by-example-jrme-pags-9781482205473","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
