Dear all,
I am not sure if this is the right place to ask this question, but I will have
a go. Please redirect me to a different place if this is not the right one!
I have a (relatively) simple problem which causes me some frustration because I
cannot find the solution. I measure ten variables (var1 to var10) every day,
they are all continuous (linear) and most of them are correlated. Some days,
for any reason, the relationship between these variables may change. They are
still correlated, but their correlation may change slightly but practically
this is important. Or, one of the variables may increase its value
significantly suddenly and keep this high value for a few days and then come
back to the normal level. I am using R. Is there any function I can use to help
me identify these strange days when the relationship between these variables
changes? For example, if DayX is such a strange day, factor analyzing the data
before DayX and after DayX separately would give me different factors (princial
components). But how can I identify such a daym without trial and error?
Thank you for the help...
