Internal: Calculate the outer weights for PLS-PM

Description

Calculates outer weights in PLS-PM. Currently, the originally suggested mode A and mode B are suggested. Additionally, non-negative least squares (modeBNNLS) and weights of principal component analysis (PCA) are implemented.

Usage

calculateOuterWeightsPLS(
   .data   = args_default()$.data,  
   .S      = args_default()$.S,
   .W      = args_default()$.W,
   .E      = args_default()$.E,
   .modes  = args_default()$.modes
   )

Arguments

`.data`	A `data.frame` or a `matrix` of standardized or unstandardized data (indicators/items/manifest variables). Possible column types or classes of the data provided are: "`logical`", "`numeric`" ("`double`" or "`integer`"), "`factor`" ("`ordered`" and/or "`unordered`"), "`character`" (converted to factor), or a mix of several types.
`.S`	The (K x K) empirical indicator correlation matrix.
`.W`	A (J x K) matrix of weights.
`.E`	A (J x J) matrix of inner weights.
`.modes`	A vector giving the mode for each construct in the form `"name" = "mode"`. Only used internally.

Value

A (J x K) matrix of outer weights.
