Abstract

This paper sets a proposal of a new method and two new algorithms for Correspondence Analysis when we have Symbolic Multi--Valued Variables (SymCA). In our method, there are two multi--valued variables X and Y, that is to say, the modality that takes the variables for a given individual is a finite set formed by the possible modalities taken for the variables in a given individual, that which allows to apply the Correspondence Analysis to multiple selection questionnaires. Then, starting from all the possible classic contingency tables an interval contingency table can be built, which will be the point of departure of the proposed method.
