test.l.max: Find maximum possible wight transformation value.

Description

This function approximates the highest possible value for l in a nested loop. It uses test.l and does not need any further parameters. It starts with l between zero and 0.5 and iteratively approximates the last possible vlaues for which the weight-transformed matrix of the input data still allows eigenspace extraction.

Usage

test.l.max(X, n = 10, ...)

Arguments

X

Numeric matrix, input data set with m samples (rows) and n variables (columns).

n

Numeric scalar, number of loop runs and values per loop.

…

Further arguments passed to the function.

Value

Numeric scalar, maximal possible l value.
