A Reformulation of the Partial Least Squares Regression (Young) ====================================================================== SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing Volume 15-1, January 1994, pp. 225-230 (C) 1994 by Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics All rights reserved Title: A Reformulation of the Partial Least Squares Regression Author: P. J. Young AMS Subject Classifications: primary 62J99; secondary 62H20, 62H25, 62J05 Key words: partial least squares, latent variables, factor loadings ---- ABSTRACT A new algorithm for partial least squares regression is introduced that is shown to be equivalent to, and more efficient than, the current algorithms. In addition, the new algorithm works explicitly in terms of the factor loadings and is therefore particularly useful when interpretation of the factors is required. ====================================================================== SIAM 3600 University City Science Center Philadelphia, PA 19104-2688, USA Phone: 215-382-9800, 800-447-7426 (USA only) Fax: 215-386-7999 E-mail: journals@siam.org
