Some applications require to access the score coefficient component matrix B . These coefficients are used to transform the standardized data into factors by computing F = Z · B, where Z are the standardized data and F the hidden factors.
An example of such use case can be found in the paper Constructing an alternative dollar index to gauge the movements in currency markets.
In this paper, B is used to compute weights for the different indexes.
This pull request attempts to add an attribute to the class
factor_analyzer
to allow access to B (weights_).
