smacofxDeleteOne function

Helper function to conduct jackknife MDS

Function deletes every object row and columns once and fits the MDS in object and returns the configuration. The deleted row is set to 0 in the configuration. Is meant for smacofx functions, but should also work for every smacof models.

smacofxDeleteOne(
  object,
  delta,
  weightmat,
  init,
  ndim,
  type,
  verbose = FALSE,
  itmaxi = 10000
)

Arguments

• object: Object of class smacofP if used as method or another object inheriting from smacofB. Note we assume the MDS model was fitted on a symmetric matrix/data frame or dist object
• delta: the data (symmetric matrix, data frame or dist object)
• weightmat: weighting matrix
• init: starting configuration
• ndim: target dimension of the mds
• type: type of MDS
• verbose: print progress
• itmaxi: maximum iterations of the MDS procedure

Returns

An array of size n with n coonfigurations
