MultipleCar: A Graphical User Interface MATLAB Toolbox to Compute Multiple Correspondence Analysis

Abstract

In this paper we present the toolbox MultipleCar, which is a general program for computing multiple correspondence analysis and which was designed using a graphical user interface. The procedures implemented in MultipleCar are the usual ones that are already available in other applications, plus some additional procedures. MultipleCar makes it possible to compute (1) joint correspondence analysis, and (2) orthogonal and oblique rotation of coordinates. Although MultipleCar was developed in MATLAB, we compiled it as a standalone application for Windows operative systems based on graphical user interfaces. The users can decide whether to use the advanced MATLAB version of MultipleCar, or the standalone version (which does not require any programming skills).
