Application of Models to New Data

In most cases, the function used to create a model (e.g. PCA, PLS, etc) is also used to make a prediction with the created model. See the function used for more information on this. In addition, these utilities may be of use for certain applications.


modelselector - Create or apply a model selector model.
compressmodel - Remove references to unused variables from a model.
matchvars - Align variables of a dataset to allow prediction with a model.
pcapro - Projects new data on old principal components model.

Model Analysis and Calculation Utilities

manrotate - Graphical interface to manually rotate model loadings.
qconcalc - Calculate Q residuals contributions for predictions on a model.
residuallimit - Estimates confidence limits for sum squared residuals.
reviewmodel - Examines a standard model structure for typical problems.
tconcalc - Calculate Hotellings T2 contributions for predictions on a model.
tsqlim - Confidence limits for Hotelling's T^2.
varcap - Variance captured for each variable in PCA model.
varimax - Orthogonal rotation of loadings.


als - Alternating Least Squares computational engine.
datahat - Calculates the model estimate and residuals of the data.
dispmat - Calculates the dispersion matrix of two spectral data sets.
pcaengine - Principal Components Analysis computational engine.
tsqmtx - Calculates matrix for T^2 contributions for PCA.
comparelcms_simengine - Calculational Engine for comparelcms.

Plotting Utilities
