MacDendro.sea.hqx MacMul4_GraphMu5.sea.hqx Manuals.sea.hqx MacMul, GraphMu, MacDendro Jean Thioulouse Laboratoire de Biometrie, Genetique et Biologie des populations U.R.A. CNRS 243 - Universite Lyon 1 69622 Villeurbanne Cedex France These packages contain programs written by J. Thioulouse to do multivariate data analysis and graphical display on a Macintosh. The first file is for systems without a FPU, and the second is for systems with a FPU. From the author's description: MacMul performs three basic multivariate analyses: principal component analysis (PCA, for quantitative variables), correspondence analysis (CA, for count tables), and multiple correspondence analysis (MCA, for qualitative variables). MacMul includes a complete, original and unified set of numerical aids to interpretation: inertia analysis (absolute and relative contributions) for rows and columns, additional elements (rows and columns), data reconstitution, percentage tables, among others. GraphMu is designed to draw the graphical outputs of data analysis methods (principal axes planes), as well as several types of graphics useful for the analysis of multivariate data (scattergrams, line charts, bar charts, histograms, stepped curves, maps with circles and squares, ellipses, Gaussian curves). The main feature of GraphMu is the possibility to draw automatically *collections* of graphics. Drawings may be saved in files of type RPICT,S and are compatible with commercial drawing software of the Macintosh (e.g. MacDraw). Copy/paste operations on pictures are supported, making superimpositions easy. MacDendro is a cluster analysis program. The main features are computation of distances (Euclidean, Chi-2 and Jaccard's index), clustering algorithms, and "inertia analysis" of hierarchies and partitions to help understanding the contribution of variables to the formation of the nodes of the hierarchy, or to the formation of the clusters. MacMul and GraphMu are available in three versions - one for 68k non-FPU machines, one for 68k FPU machines, and one for PPC machines. MacDendro is available only for 68k non-FPU and 68k FPU machines. All programs run under both system 6 and system 7, and they are 32-bit clean. -------------------------------------------------------------- Location in Mathematics Archives: Anonymous FTP: /mac/statistics Gopher: (First select "Software" then "Macintosh software arranged by subjects") Statistics / Mac Dendro, et al. --------------------------------------------------------------
