Is background prediction possible in 3D?

Hi there,

Loving the background prediction aspect of PLS-DA analysis.

From the perf() results, the best results should be with 3 components. However, the background mapping as far as I have managed to see is for 2 components only. It would help our sample mapping and cluster separation to map this in 3D with all 3 components.

Is that an option?

hi @lizak

Unfortunately, no! :frowning:

At this stage you will have to keep to a comp 1,2 and comp 1,3. We only have 3D plots for plotIndiv without the background.

Hi @kimanh.lecao,

Fair enough! Is there any work on this on the cards in the next year or so? Before I try and come up with a work around :slightly_smiling_face:

Thanks,

Liza

hi @lizak,

No funding so far for a software developer so I dont think we will get around this issue for quite some time!

Hi Kim,
Apologies for the slow reply, I went on maternity leave around the time of this discussion.
If this we end up working on the 3D background mapping as part of one of our projects, would you be interested in collaborating? This is still a little way into the future, but definitely on the cards for what we intend to do.

Cheers,
Liza

Congrats @lizak! :slight_smile:

Send me an email and we can arrange a time to discuss.
