Provides some easy-to-use functions to extract and visualize the
    output of multivariate data analyses, including 'PCA' (Principal Component
    Analysis), 'CA' (Correspondence Analysis), 'MCA' (Multiple Correspondence
    Analysis), 'FAMD' (Factor Analysis of Mixed Data), 'MFA' (Multiple Factor Analysis) and 'HMFA' (Hierarchical Multiple
    Factor Analysis) functions from different R packages. It contains also functions
    for simplifying some clustering analysis steps and provides 'ggplot2' - based
    elegant data visualization.

Brings a set of tools to help and automatically realise the description of principal component analyses (from 'FactoMineR' functions). Detection of existing outliers, identification of the informative components, graphical views and dimensions description are performed threw dedicated functions. The Investigate() function performs all these functions in one, and returns the result as a report document (Word, PDF or HTML).

Exploratory data analysis methods to summarize, visualize and describe datasets. The main principal component methods are available, those with the largest potential in terms of applications: principal component analysis (PCA) when variables are quantitative, correspondence analysis (CA) and multiple correspondence analysis (MCA) when variables are categorical, Multiple Factor Analysis when variables are structured in groups, etc. and hierarchical cluster analysis.

Computes factorial A-, D- and E-optimal designs for two-colour cDNA microarray experiments.

A well known identifiability issue in factor analytic models is the invariance with respect to orthogonal transformations. This problem burdens the inference under a Bayesian setup, where Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods are used to generate samples from the posterior distribution. The package applies a series of rotation, sign and permutation transformations (Papastamoulis and Ntzoufras (2022) <DOI:10.1007/s11222-022-10084-4>) into raw MCMC samples of factor loadings, which are provided by the user. The post-processed output is identifiable and can be used for MCMC inference on any parametric function of factor loadings. Comparison of multiple MCMC chains is also possible.
