Dissimilarity profile analysis (DPA) is a multivariate exploratory tool that extends the usual profile analysis for data matrices to dissimilarity matrices. Main feature of DPA is the decomposition of the squared Euclidean distance between pairs of dissimilarity profiles in four additive components, each of which has a proper meaning. Potentialities of DPA are illustrated with reference to a case study concerning a missing data imputation problem in the context of cardiovascular risk assessment.

Abstract

Dissimilarity profile analysis (DPA) is a multivariate exploratory tool that extends the usual profile analysis for data matrices to dissimilarity matrices. Main feature of DPA is the decomposition of the squared Euclidean distance between pairs of dissimilarity profiles in four additive components, each of which has a proper meaning. Potentialities of DPA are illustrated with reference to a case study concerning a missing data imputation problem in the context of cardiovascular risk assessment.
