I have only find the following quote: One method to find such relationships is to select appropriate variables and to view the data using a method like Principle Components Analysis (PCA) [4]. This approach gives us a clear picture of the data using KL-plot of the PCA. However, the method is not settled for the data including categorical data. [http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA038807/personal/covEigGiniRep17.pdf] but I'm still not sure if it WRONG to do so. Any opinion or reference would be very helpful thanks ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
