I am not sure of the question being asked. Perhaps what was meant was
how to visualize the shape deformation implied by changes along each
axis? I think the CVAGen6 software has an option for that. Basically,
one regresses shape on the CVA scores. This can be done in the tpsRegr
software.

For a single canonical variate, you can compute the variance along this
CV and divide it by the total variance (computed, e.g., as the sum of
the variances of all variables). But in contrast to PCA, you cannot add
up the variances for two or more CVs, because the CV axes are not
orthogonal. You could compute the variance within the plane spanned by
two CVs when orthogonalizing the two CV axes.
However, explained variance among the individuals is not often reported
for CVA, as it is not the quantity that is maximized.
Best,
Philipp

Hi,
I amanalyzinga dataset with 12 landmarks and 12 groups. I have run CVA
by using CVAGen6 from IMP and I want to obtain the shape variation
associated with first CVs. How could I achieve?
Thanks in advance.
