The HJ biplot is a multivariate analysis technique that allows us to represent both individuals and variables in a space of reduced dimensions. To adapt this approach to massive datasets, it is necessary to implement new techniques that are capable of reducing the dimensionality of the data and improving interpretation. Because of this, we propose a modern approach to obtaining the HJ biplot called the elastic net HJ biplot, which applies the elastic net penalty to improve the interpretation of the results. It is a novel algorithm in the sense that it is the first attempt within the biplot family in which regularisation methods are used to obtain modified loadings to optimise the results. As a complement to the proposed method, and to give practical support to it, a package has been developed in the R language called SparseBiplots. This package fills a gap that exists in the context of the HJ biplot through penalized techniques since in addition to the elastic net, it also includes the ridge and lasso to obtain the HJ biplot. To complete the study, a practical comparison is made with the standard HJ biplot and the disjoint biplot, and some results common to these methods are analysed.

Se determinó un perfil de la infraestructura de una población rural en Venezuela con respecto a la vivienda según el sector, realizando un análisis de correspondencias simple en donde se compararon las variables de infraestructura con respecto a la variable “sector”.  La base de datos se obtuvo de una investigación previa basada en un cuestionario del censo de población y vivienda del Instituto Nacional de Estadística (INE) de una muestra de 226 hogares. Los resultados obtenidos variaron según el tipo de infraestructura y servicios básicos del sector. La técnica de análisis de correspondencias simple mostró ventajas y desventajas como método para caracterizar poblaciones.   Palabras clave: Análisis de correspondencias simple, análisis multivariante, caracterización, infraestructura.   Abstract A profile of the infrastructure of a rural population in Venezuela was determined with respect to housing according to the sector, performing a simple correspondence analysis in which the infrastructure variables were compared with respect to the variable "sector". The database was obtained from a previous investigation based on a questionnaire of the population and housing census of the National Institute of Statistics (INE) of a sample of 226 households. The results obtained varied according to the type of infrastructure and basic services in the sector. The simple correspondence analysis technique showed advantages and disadvantages as a method to characterize populations.   Keywords: Simple Correspondence Analysis, Multivariate Analysis, Characterization, Infrastructure.

The grassland forage must be monitored related to the quantitative and qualitative parameters. Festuca rupicola is one of the grass desired in grassland forage. It is necessary to have accessible statistical tools to monitor the Festuca rupicola biodynamic. The objective of the present research was to study that multivariate analysis technique Principal Components & Classification Analysis (PC&CA) can be used as a statistical tool for the estimation of Festuca rupicola biodynamic dependent of the fertilisation. The experimental results for Festuca rupicola cutting were collected in June and August 2009 from a hill permanent grassland ecosystem, with a substances flow anthropic influenced by the application of mineral and organic (sheep manure) fertilisers. The hill permanent grassland was situated in Banat, Romania, on a Calcic Luvisol. It was selected eight trials as PC&CA cases, the Festuca rupicola biodynamic data as supplementary variables, and as active variables the fertilisation data and ecological soil parameters. The correlation coefficients of Festuca rupicola biodynamic parameters (Fr1 and Fr2) were positively in mineral fertilisation case and negatively for sheep manure application. The Festuca rupicola biodynamic in June 2009 was high positive correlated with the Festuca rupicola biodynamic in August 2009 (0.835). The statistical data performed in the present study have shown that the multivariate analysis technique PC&CA can be used as a statistical tool for the estimation of Festuca rupicola biodymamic dependent of the mineral and/or organic fertilisation of hill grassland ecosystem.
