Abstract :
A method for compromise factor extraction from covariance/correlation matrices corresponding to different strata is introduced. Compromise factors are independent and on this constraint they explain the largest possible part of the variables´ total variance over the strata. Binary samples are also investigated. The so-called compromise representation of the strata is introduced. A practical application for parallel factoring of medical data in different strata is also presented.
