print.archetypal function

Print an object of the class archetypal.

It prints the output of archetypal

## S3 method for class 'archetypal'
print(x, ...)

Arguments

• x: An object of the class archetypal
• ...: Other arguments (ignored)

Details

Since Archetypal Analysis (AA) is essentially one more matrix decomposition of the form Y ~ ABY, it is reasonable to print:

1. the $kappas \times d$ matrix of archetypes found
2. the $n \times kappas$ matrix A such that Y ~ ABY or Frobenius norm ||Y-ABY|| is minimum
3. the $kappas \times n$ matrix B such that Y ~ ABY or Frobenius norm ||Y-ABY|| is minimum

Examples

{
## Use the sample data "wd2"
data(wd2)
aa=archetypal(wd2, 3)
print(aa)

}
