  1. Multivariate Transformation

  2. Multivariate Transformations • Started in statistics of psychology and sociology. • Also called multivariate analyses and multivariate statistics. • Have been used by biological scientists since Fisher 1921. • Different from all other forms of statistics. • Explained in form of matrix algebra.

  6. Properties of Matrices Sum of leading diagonal is called the trace There is the possibility that a symmetrical matrix may be singular

  7. Singular Matrices 4 7 -1 7 8 11 -1 11 -38 5 -3 -1 5a -3b -c = 0

  8. Singular Matrices If A and B are symmetrical matrices, of size p x p then there are p values of A that make A - ΔB singular These values are called latent-roots or eigen-values The multipliers (transformants) are calledeigen-vectors

  13. Eigen values and eigen vectors

  14. Use of Singular Matrices • Used in several multivariate transformations where A and B represent variability of sets of characters. • Making A - ΔB singular may be regarded as subtracting B from A as often as possible, until the determinential value is zero.

  15. What do plant scientists do? • They test hypothesis: “Does this treatment affect the crop?” • They estimate a quantity in a hypothesis: “What is the expected yield increase resulting from adding 100 lbs of nitrogen?” • Multivariate transformations serve neither purpose, but rather they set hypothesis!

  16. Why use multivariate Transformations Principal Components Canonical Analyses Reduce the dimensions of complex situations

  17. Matrix of Interest XX’ = = A

  18. Principal Components Example #1 • Extracted from the work of Moore. • Concerned with the effect of size of apple trees at planting on future tree development • Tree weight (w); trunk circumference squared (x); length of laterals (y) and length of central leader (z)

  19. Principal Components Example #1 = A

  20. Principal Components Example #1 = B

  21. Principal Components Example #1 • The sum of the eigen values equals the trace of A (the original correlation matrix). • The trace of A is the total variance of the four variables. • The value of the eigen value indicates the proportion of the total variation that is accountedfor by that transformation.

  30. Problems for Statisticians • It should be noted that multivariate transformations are often speculative. • Analyses are laborious and require unique and specific computer software. • There are large dangers that we let the computer reduce the dimensions of a problem but in a non-biological manner.

  31. Multivariate Transformations Applicable to multiple dimension problems Reduce the dimensions of complex problems Must be treated with knowledge of biological systems. Can be considered as a “try it and see” technique Can point researchers in the correct direction and indicates possible hypothesis that might be tested in future studies

  32. Summary • Association between characters. • Simple linear regression model. • Estimation of parameters. • Analysis of variance of regression. • Testing regression parameters (t tests).

  33. Summary • Prediction using regression. • Outliers. • Scatter diagrams. • Making a curved line strait. • Transformation, probit analysis. • Optimal assent, where strait lines meet.

  34. Summary • Correlation. • Bi-variate distribution. • Testing correlation coefficients. • Transforming to z. • Use of correlation.

  35. Summary • Multiple regression. • Analysis of variance. • Forward step-wise regression. • Polynomial regression. • Multivariate transformation.
