An Expert System for the Interpretation of Results of Canonical Covariance Analysis
Konstantin Momirović, J. Radaković, Vesna Dobrić · COMPSTAT · 1988
The expected knowledge of mathematical and statistical properties of some data analysis method or technique in the sample of users of this method or technique usually decrease as the sample space increase. This is especially true for the apparently simple and intuitively easy understandable methods, like Canonical Covariance Analysis (Momirovic, Dobric and Karaman, 1983; Momirovic and Dobric, 1985; Dobric, 1986). Unfortunately the knowledge of a typical user of CCA is seldom sufficient even for technical interpretation of obtained results. For that reason an expert system is written in GENSTAT to help the interpretation to user not understanding the real meaning of parameters and set of pattern, structure, crosstructure and latent variables intercorrelation and crosscorrelation matrices computed for the identification of latent variables content.
