Abstract
Extended redundancy analysis (ERA) is a multivariate analysis procedure that regresses dependent variable(s) on the component scores, defined as weighted sums of independent variables. ERA requires information on the group structure of the independent variables, which is not available in many cases. The research proposes a new exploratory variant of ERA called exploratory ERA (ExERA), which does not require the group structure but estimates it using the dataset. ExERA is further classified into the following two procedures: ExERA-Sp and ExERA-R. ExERA-Sp estimates the group structure of independent variables by sparsely estimating the weight matrix, while ExERA-R approximates a similar structure obtained using ExERA-Sp and obliquely rotating the weight matrix. The performance of the two procedures was investigated using numerical simulation and a real data example. The results showed that the proposed methods were effective for exploratory data analysis.
