Abstract #302825

This is the preliminary program for the 2005 Joint Statistical Meetings in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Currently included in this program is the "technical" program, schedule of invited, topic contributed, regular contributed and poster sessions; Continuing Education courses (August 7-10, 2005); and Committee and Business Meetings. This on-line program will be updated frequently to reflect the most current revisions.

Abstract:

The familiar canonical correlation formulation deals with the relationship between two vector-valued random variables and has been extended to settings with three or more vector-valued variables. This setting is increasingly interesting in a number of settings. For example, the members of a pharmaceutical chemical library may be described by a vector of observed clinical effects, a vector of Aspergillus mutagenicity measures, and a vector of molecular descriptors. This leads to the problem of finding linear (or nonlinear) functions of the separate vectors that show the commonality between the three types of measures. Such datasets typically are of very high dimension, however, and multiblock methods motivated by social science problems are unsatisfactory to address problems such as apparent rank near-deficiencies, which arise in high dimension, without adaptation. We present some adaptations of this sort and address the related problem of model diagnostics.
