Examples


# Here we use the sorting task from Abdi et al.' (2007) paper.
# where 10 Assessors sorted 8 beers.

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  1. Get the data from the 2007 sorting example
#      this is the way they look from Table 1 of
#      Abdi et al. (2007).
#                       Assessors
#                  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
# Beer        Sex  f m f f m m m m f m
#            -----------------------------
#Affligen          1 4 3 4 1 1 2 2 1 3
#Budweiser         4 5 2 5 2 3 1 1 4 3
#Buckler_Blonde    3 1 2 3 2 4 3 1 1 2
#Killian           4 2 3 3 1 1 1 2 1 4
#St. Landelin      1 5 3 5 2 1 1 2 1 3
#Buckler_Highland  2 3 1 1 3 5 4 4 3 1
#Fruit Defendu     1 4 3 4 1 1 2 2 2 4
#EKU28             5 2 4 2 4 2 5 3 4 5


# 1.1. Create the
#     Name of the Beers
BeerName <- c('Affligen', 'Budweiser','Buckler Blonde',
              'Killian','St.Landelin','Buckler Highland',
              'Fruit Defendu','EKU28')
# 1.2. Create the name of the Assessors
#      (F are females, M are males)
Juges <- c('F1','M2', 'F3', 'F4', 'M5', 'M6', 'M7', 'M8', 'F9', 'M10')

# 1.3. Get the sorting data
SortData <- c(1, 4, 3, 4, 1, 1, 2, 2, 1, 3,
              4, 5, 2, 5, 2, 3, 1, 1, 4, 3,
              3, 1, 2, 3, 2, 4, 3, 1, 1, 2,
              4, 2, 3, 3, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 4,
              1, 5, 3, 5, 2, 1, 1, 2, 1, 3,
              2, 3, 1, 1, 3, 5, 4, 4, 3, 1,
              1, 4, 3, 4, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 4,
              5, 2, 4, 2, 4, 2, 5, 3, 4, 5)
# 1.4 Create a data frame
Sort <- matrix(SortData,ncol = 10, byrow= TRUE, dimnames = list(BeerName, Juges))
#     (alternatively we could have read a csv file)
# 1.5 Example of how to read a csv filw
# Sort <- read.table("BeeerSortingTask.csv", header=TRUE,
#   sep=",", na.strings="NA", dec=".", row.names=1, strip.white=TRUE)

#------------------------------------------------------------------
# 2. Create the set of distance matrices 
#  (one distance matrix per assessor)
#    (uses the function DistanceFromSort)
DistanceCube <- DistanceFromSort(Sort)
#------------------------------------------------------------------
# 3. Call the DISTATIS routine with the cube of distance as parameter
testDistatis <- distatis(DistanceCube)
# The factor scores for the beers are in
# testDistatis$res4Splus$F
# the factor scores for the assessors are in (RV matrice)
#  testDistatis$res4Cmat$G

#------------------------------------------------------------------
# 4. Inferences on the beers obtained via bootstrap
#    here we use two different bootstraps:
#    1. Bootstrap on factors (very fast but could be too liberal
#         when the number of assessors is very large)
#    2. Complete bootstrap obtained by computing sets of compromises
#       and projecting them (could be significantly longer because a lot
#       of computations is required)
#
# 4.1 Get the bootstrap factor scores (with default 1000 iterations)
BootF <- BootFactorScores(testDistatis$res4Splus$PartialF)
#
# 4.2 Get the boostrap from full bootstrap (default niter = 1000)
 F_fullBoot <- BootFromCompromise(DistanceCube,niter=1000)


#------------------------------------------------------------------
# 5. Create the Graphics
# 5.1 an Rv map
 rv.graph.out <- GraphDistatisRv(testDistatis$res4Cmat$G)
# 5.2 a compromise plot
 compromise.graph.out <- GraphDistatisCompromise(testDistatis$res4Splus$F)
# 5.3 a partial factor score plot
 partial.scores.graph.out <-
 	GraphDistatisPartial(testDistatis$res4Splus$F,testDistatis$res4Splus$PartialF)
# 5.4 a bootstrap confidence interval plot
 #5.4.1 with ellipses
 boot.graph.out.ell <- GraphDistatisBoot(testDistatis$res4Splus$F,BootF)
 #or
 # boot.graph.out <- GraphDistatisBoot(testDistatis$res4Splus$F,F_fullBoot)
 #5.4.2 with hulls
 boot.graph.out.hull <- GraphDistatisBoot(testDistatis$res4Splus$F,BootF,ellipses=FALSE)
 #or
 # boot.graph.out <- GraphDistatisBoot(testDistatis$res4Splus$F,F_fullBoot,ellipses=FALSE)
#5.5 all the plots at once
all.plots.out <-
	GraphDistatisAll(testDistatis$res4Splus$F,testDistatis$res4Splus$PartialF,
		BootF,testDistatis$res4Cmat$G)
