contr_mat {GFDmcv}R Documentation

Contrasts' matrices

Description

The output are different contrast matrices, namely the centering matrix as well as the matrices of Dunnett's and Tukey's contrasts for given number of groups.

Usage

contr_mat(k, type = c("center", "Dunnett", "Tukey"))

Arguments

k

an integer denoting a number of groups

type

an character denoting type of contrasts. The possible values are "center" (default), "Dunnett", "Tukey".

Details

The centering matrix is \mathbf{P}_k = \mathbf{I}_k - \mathbf{J}_k/k, where \mathbf{I}_k is the unity matrix and \mathbf{J}_k=\mathbf{1}\mathbf{1}^{\top} \in R^{k\times k} consisting of 1's only. The matrix of Dunnett's contrasts:

\left(\begin{array}{rrrrrr} -1 & 1 & 0 & \ldots & \ldots & 0\\ -1 & 0 & 1 & 0 & \ldots & 0 \\ \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \vdots \\ -1 & 0 & \ldots & \ldots & 0 & 1\\ \end{array}\right)\in R^{(k-1)\times k}.

The matrix of Tukey's contrasts:

\left(\begin{array}{rrrrrrr} -1 & 1 & 0 & \ldots & \ldots & 0 & 0\\ -1 & 0 & 1 & 0 & \ldots & \ldots & 0 \\ \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \vdots \\ -1 & 0 & 0 & 0 & \ldots & \ldots & 1 \\ 0 & -1 & 1 & 0 &\ldots & \ldots & 0 \\ \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \vdots \\ 0 & \ldots & \ldots & \ldots & 0 & -1 & 1\\ \end{array}\right)\in R^{{k \choose 2}\times k}.

Value

The matrix of contrasts.
