METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DATA DECOMPOSITION VIA GRAPHICAL MULTIVARIATE ANALYSIS

A method for multivariate analysis using a mathematical model for generating model data and actual data for more than one variable includes for each variable, determining a difference between the model data and the actual data. The model data is substantially representative of more than one variable. The method also includes for each variable, determining a fractional impact on performance. The method further includes for each variable, determining a weighted deviation based on the determined difference and the determined fractional impact. The method also includes transmitting the weighted deviation to an output device.
