Dear Researchers,
I tried to plot CCA triplot using PAST v.3.2 with the same data set for a second calculation. & I experienced a difference in triplot and also in the eigen values.
In the first calculation, I got the eigen values as:
Axis Eigenvalue %
1 0.18872 75.76
2 0.060376 24.24
& in second calculation with the same data using the same software,
Axis Eigenvalue %
1 0.18202 80.37
2 0.044461 19.63
was the score!
Is it a minor/ major error? Can anybody help me to resolve this problem? & please share your experiences with PAST software, if any?
Thanks in Advance.
sincerely
Anila .P. Ajayan
From what I remember there is bootstrap option while doing multivariate analyses in PAST, so each time you call the function with same data your results my be slighlty different, since it uses some randomization techniques to calculate result on different subsets, which in effect lead to different outcomes each time you run a function.
