COMBINATION OF FACTORIAL METHODS AND CLUSTER ANALYSIS IN R: THE PACKAGE FACTOCLASS COMBINACIÓN DE MÉTODOS FACTORIALES Y DE ANÁLISIS DE CONGLOMERADOS EN R: EL PAQUETE FACTOCLASS
The new R package FactoClass to combine factorial methods and cluster analysis is presented. This package is implemented in order to perform a multivariate exploration of a data table according to Lebart et al. (1995). We use some ade4 functions (Chessel et al. 2004) to perform the factorial analysi...
