  64. Sequential data analysis - 2 Dissimilarities among pairs of state sequences Analysis of sequence discrepancy Multiple factor analysis Generalize previous approach for multiple covariates. There are different approaches. Here, we Measure the additional contribution of each covariate v when we accounted for all other covariates. The F statistics reads F v = ( SS B c − SS B v ) / p SS W c / ( n − m − 1) where the SS B c and SS W c are the explained and residual sums of squares of the full model, SS B v the explained sum of squares of the model after removing variable v , and p the number of indicators or contrasts used to encode the covariate v . significance is assessed again through permutation tests. 8/7/2009gr 53/100

How do differences between men and women insertion trajectories vary over time? Compute R 2 for short sliding windows (length 2) We get thus a sequence of R 2 , which can be plotted Similarly, we can plot series of total residual discrepancy ( SS W ) residual discrepancy of each group ( SS G ) 8/7/2009gr 55/100

Sequential data analysis - 2 Dissimilarities among pairs of state sequences Analysis of sequence discrepancy Tree structured discrepancy analysis Objective: Find the most important predictors and their interactions. Iteratively segment the cases using values of covariates (predictors) Such that groups be as homogenous as possible. At each step, we select the covariate and split with highest R 2 . Significance of split is assessed through a permutation F test. Growing stops, when the selected split is not significant. 8/7/2009gr 59/100

  79. Sequential data analysis - 2 Mining event sequences Event sequences Analysis of event sequences Objective Focus on events, rather than states. Interest in the patterns of events. Pattern of event: events that occur systematically together and in same order Are there typical“patterns”of events? Relationship with covariates Which patterns best discriminate specific groups? Typical differences in event sequences between men and women. Events patterns vs typical state sequencing.
