PCA using R - KMO index and Bartlett's test
Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a dimension reduction technique. We obtain a set of factors which summarize, as well as possible, the information available in the data. The factors are linear combinations of the original variables. The approach can handle only quantitative variables. We have presented the PCA in previous tutorials. In this paper, we describe in details two indicators used for the checking of the interest of the implementation of the PCA on a dataset: the Bartlett's sphericity test and the KMO index. They are directly available in some commercial tools (e.g. SAS or SPSS). Here, we describe the formulas and we show how to program them under R. We compare the obtained results with those of SAS on a dataset.
