- Description
- Correspondence analysis represents the row and column categories of a contingency table as points in a low dimensional space, irrespective of whether the categories are successive or not. In this paper, a scaling method is considered for successive categories that are regarded as a series of boxes (intervals) or numbers defined on a line scale. By using this method, each category is represented as a region not as a point under the assumptions that (1) each category is represented by an interval for which the end points lie on the boundary of its adjacent category, and (2) the scale values of the category are uniformly distributed over the interval. It is shown that the proposed method has simple links to correspondence analysis and multiple correspondence analysis. The effectiveness of the method is confirmed by considering some examples.
