Generalized Procrustes Analysis

Gower, J. C.

Psychometrika, 40, 1, 33-51, Mar 75

Concerned with another form of analysis of m sets of matrices, the Procrustes idea is generalized so that all m sets are simultaneously translated, rotated, reflected and scaled so that a goodness of fit criterion is optimised. A computational technique is given, results of which can be summarized in analysis of variance form. (RC)
