Abstract

In this paper, we consider detecting unidimensional structure that may be involved in a matrix representing asymmetric relationships among a set of objects. For this purpose, we focus on the procedure of asymmmetric MDS based on a model and the two procedures based on matrix decomposition. With a brief review for each procedure, we state conditions or theorems under which such a structure is derived from the data matrix. Using brand switching data, we provide illustrative examples for the arguments.
