Purpose

Mean center data matrices.

Synopsis

[mcx,mx,msg] = mncn(x,options)

Description

MNCN mean centers a matrix x and returns a matrix mcx with mean zero columns and a vector of means mx used to center the data. Optional input options is discussed below.

The output msg returns any warning messages.

Options

options = a structure array with the following fields.

  • display: [ {'off'} | 'on'] Governs screen display.
  • matrix_threshold: [.15] Error threshold based on fraction of missing data in whole matrix.
  • column_threshold: [.25] Error threshold based on fraction of missing data in single column.
