Multidimensional scaling. [PDF]
AbstractThe concept of similarity, or a sense of ‘sameness’ among things, is pivotal to theories in the cognitive sciences and beyond. Similarity, however, is a difficult thing to measure. Multidimensional scaling (MDS) is a tool by which researchers can obtain quantitative estimates of similarity among groups of items.

More on Multidimensional Scaling and Unfolding in R: smacof Version 2
The smacof package offers a comprehensive implementation of multidimensional scaling (MDS) techniques in R. Since its first publication (De Leeuw and Mair 2009b) the functionality of the package has been enhanced, and several additional methods, features

Multidimensional Scaling by Majorization: A Review
A major breakthrough in the visualization of dissimilarities between pairs of objects was the formulation of the least-squares multidimensional scaling (MDS) model as defined by the Stress function.

Spectral multidimensional scaling. [PDF]
Significance Scientific theories describe observations by equations with a small number of parameters or dimensions. Memory and computational efficiency of dimension reduction procedures is a function of the size of the observed data. Sparse local operators that involve almost linear complexity, and faithful multiscale models with quadratic ...

Multidimensional Scaling Visualization Using Parametric Similarity Indices
In this paper, we apply multidimensional scaling (MDS) and parametric similarity indices (PSI) in the analysis of complex systems (CS). Each CS is viewed as a dynamical system, exhibiting an output time-series to be interpreted as a manifestation of its ...

Although the assignment was to write a note about the famous, highly cited Kruskal 1964 papers, it would hardly be fair if the topic wasn’t described in the context of two other papers, being Shepard’s 1962 papers (with 2309 citations in Google Scholar ...
