morepls provides functions for the interpretation of PLS regressions.

Graphical functions :

  • two-dimensional plot of observations
  • two-dimensional plot of correlations between variables and components
  • two-dimensional plot of variables (Y loadings and X projections)
  • bar plot of regression coefficients
  • bar plot of X variables weights
  • bar plot of X variables VIPs

Statistical indicators :

  • correlations between variables and components
  • R2 and redundancies between variables and components
  • Q2 and cumulative Q2 indexes
  • raw and standardized coefficients

Installation
