Assignment Description
Homework 2
IE 7275 Data Mining in Engineering
Task 1: Tutorial
• Reading chapter “Principal components and factor analysis.”
Task 2: Perform principal component analysis
• Input the raw data matrix to fa.parallel() function to determine the number of components to extract
• Input the raw data matrix to principal() function to extract the components. If raw data is input, the correlation matrix is automatically calculated by principal() function.
• Rotate the components
• Compute component scores
• Graph an orthogonal solution using factor.plot()
• Interpret the results
Task 3: Perform factor analysis
• Input the raw data matrix to fa.parallel() function to determine the number of components to extract
• Input the raw data matrix to fa() function to extract the components. If raw data is input, the correlation matrix is automatically calculated by fa() function.
• Rotate the factors
• Compute factor scores
• Graph an orthogonal solution using factor.plot()
• Graph an oblique solutions using fa.diagram()
• Interpret the results
Task 4: Perform multidimensional scaling
• Input the raw data matrix to fa.parallel() function to determine the number of components to extract
• Input the raw data matrix to cmdscale() function to perform multidimensional scaling. cmdscale() function which is available in the base installation performs a classical multidimensional scaling.
• Graph an orthogonal solution using factor.plot()
• Interpret the results
