SAVE Subcommand (PROXMAP command)

SAVE adds selected PROXMAP results to a new dataset. Use the parameter FILE to specify the file to which you need to save the data.

[/SAVE FILE ='savfile'

                         [FINAL* ]

COORDINATES
Indicates the coordinates of configurations. The parameter includes the following keywords.
  • INITIAL indicates the coordinates of the initial configuration. The names of the saved variables are Initial_Coordinates_Dimension_DIM_1 to DIM_n. The value of n varies from 1 to the number of dimensions.
  • FINAL indicates the coordinates of the common space. The names of the saved variables are Initial_Coordinates_Dimension_DIM_1 to DIM_n. The value of n varies from 1 to the number of dimensions.
  • MODEL indicates the coordinates of the individual spaces. The names of the saved variables are MODEL COORDINATES SOURCE_i_DIM_n. The value of i varies from 1 to the number of sources and the value of n varies from 1 to the number of dimensions.
PROXIMITIES
The derived proximities (for multivariate data), combined proximities (for multiple sources), and transformed proximities. The saved variables represent proximity matrices.
  • DERIVED indicates the proximities that are derived for MULTIVARIATE data for each source. The names of the saved variables are DERIVED_PROXIMITIES_SOURCE_i_OBJECT_j. The value of i varies from 1 to the number of sources and j varies from 1 to the number of objects (cases).
  • COMBINED indicates the proximities (derived for MULTIVARIATE data), combined over sources. The names of the saved variables are COMBINED_PROXIMITIES_OBJECT_j. The value of j varies from 1 to the number of objects (cases).
  • TRANSFORMED indicates the transformed proximities, for each source. The names of the saved variables are TRANSFORMED_PROXIMITIES_SOURCE_i_OBJECT_j. The value of i varies from 1 to the number of sources and j varies from 1 to the number of objects (cases).
ATTRIBUTES
The values of the transformed and fitted attribute variables.
  • For TRANSFORMED, the names of the saved variables are Transformed_Attribute_vname. vname indicates the name of the attribute variables.
  • For FITTED, the names of the saved variables are Fitted_Attribute_vname. vname indicates the name of the attribute variables.
PROPERTIES
The values of the transformed and fitted property variables.
  • For TRANSFORMED, the names of the saved variables are Transformed_Property_vname. vname indicates the name of the property variables.
  • For FITTED, the names of the saved variables are Fitted_Property_vname. vname indicates the name of the property variables.

Example


GET FILE ’states.sav’.
PROXMAP
 /SOURCEID DATA = income illit life homic school fail NAME = $SRC1
 /SOURCEID DATA = popul freeze NAME = $SRC2
 /SAVE FILE =’/data/CoordCommon.sav’ COORDINATES=FINAL MODEL 
                     PROXIMITIES= COMBINED.

In the example, the coordinates of the common space (FINAL), the individual spaces (MODEL), and the combined proximities (COMBINED) are saved to the new dataset, /data/CoordCommon.sav.
