Compares Correlation Matrices
Description
This function compares two correlation matrices numerically and graphically.
Usage
CorCompare(cor1, cor2, labels1, labels2, method1, method2, ndigits = 4,
lty1 = 1, lty2 = 2, col1 = 1, col2 = 2, lwd1 = 1.1, lwd2 = 1.1,
cex.label = 1.1, cex.legend = 1.2, lwd.legend = 1.2, cex.cor = 1, ...)
Arguments
cor1 , cor2 |
two correlation matrices based on different estimation methods |
labels1 , labels2 |
labels for the two estimation methods |
method1 , method2 |
description of the estimation methods |
ndigits |
number of digits to be used for plotting the numbers |
lty1 , lty2 , col1 , col2 , lwd1 , lwd2 , cex.label , cex.cor |
other graphics parameters |
cex.legend , lwd.legend |
graphical parameters for the legend |
... |
further graphical parameters for the ellipses |
Details
The ellipses are plotted with the function do.ellipses. Therefore the radius is calculated with singular value decomposition.
Value
No return value, creates a plot.
