[R] Explained variance for ICA

[rex.dwyer at syngenta.com]

You determine the variance explained by *any* unit vector by taking its inner product with the data points, then finding the variance of the results.  In the case of FastICA, the variance explained by the ICs collectively is exactly the same as the variance explained by the principal components (collectively) from which they are derived.

Subject: [R] Explained variance for ICA

Hello,
I think to use FastICA package for microarray data clusterization,
but one question stops me:  can I know how much variance explain each
component (or all components together) ?
I will be very thankful for the help.

Thanks,

Pavel
