Welcome to my site on Correspondence Analysis !
This site aims at providing an introduction to Correspondence Analysis (CA) by means of archaeological worked examples.
The illustration of the technique provided in this site mainly relies on my article published in the 2013 issue of the peer-reviewed journal Archeologia e Calcolatori. You may want to download that article (open access) to benefit of an extended version of this guide.
The site also describes some functions and an R package (CAinterprTools) that provide many facilities for a visual aid to CA interpretation. The R package is described in an article published in Elsevier's SoftwareX journal (http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.softx.2015.07.001).
Please note, the description of CA in this site is broken down into sections, which can be individually accessed from the page Guide by worked examples.
If you have any question, please do not hesitate to contact me via the contact form available from this same site. As of October 2016, you can also start a LIVE CHAT by using the widget that shows up at the bottom of almost all the pages of this site. I will try to answer you as soon as possible (allowing for time-zone differential). If you leave a message, but I am not online, please don't forget to leave your email address.
Feel free to leave comments and feedbacks via the Guestbook/Comments page. Many people already left their comments, which have been very appreciated :-)
