This article describes the many capabilities offered by <strong>TraMineR</strong> toolbox for categorical sequence data. It focuses more specifically on analysis and rendering of state sequences. Addressed features include description sets sequences means transversal aggregated views, computation longitudinal characteristics individual measure pairwise dissimilarities. Special emphasis is put multiple ways visualizing The core element package se- quence object in which we store set together...
This article marks the occasion of Social Science Research's 50th anniversary by reflecting on progress sequence analysis (SA) since its introduction into social sciences four decades ago, with focuses developments SA thus far in and potential future directions. The application sciences, especially life course research, has mushroomed last decade a half. Using analogy, we examined birth childhood (the first wave), adolescence young adulthood second mature paper. paper provides summary (1)...
In this article, the authors define a methodological framework for analyzing relationship between state sequences and covariates. Inspired by principles of analysis variance, approach looks at how covariates explain discrepancy sequences. The use pairwise dissimilarities to determine discrepancy, which makes it possible develop series statistical significance–based tools. They introduce generalized simple multifactor discrepancy-based methods test differences groups, pseudo- R 2 measuring...
This study reviews and compares indicators that can serve to characterize numerically the nature of state sequences. It also introduces several new indicators. Alongside basic measures such as length, number visited distinct states, changes, we shall consider composite turbulence complexity index, take account (e.g., positive vs. negative or ranking) states. The discussion points out strange behavior some measures—Elzinga’s precarity index Ritschard, Bussi, O’Reilly in particular—and...
This article is devoted to computable techniques for solving comparative static problems when only the sign of partial derivatives model considered. We first show how extract unambiguously signed multipliers, or more generally qualitatively linked multipliers. information then helps reduce size original system by means a qualitative aggregation principle which we establish. As computation solutions, branch-and-bound algorithm presented considerably increases efficiency Samuelson-Lancaster...
This article combines an inter- and intra-cohort perspective to study economic vulnerability in old age. The theoretical background is given through the combination of a social stratification framework institutional emphasizing life course policies. At macro level, increase overall education levels implementation pension system were driving forces strong decrease age poverty over last three decades. individual pathway from low early hardship after retirement most prominent, corresponding...
This article presents the PST R package for categorical sequence analysis with probabilistic suffix trees (PSTs), i.e., structures that store variable-length Markov chains (VLMCs). VLMCs allow to model high-order dependencies in sequences parsimonious models based on simple estimation procedures. The is specifically adapted field of social sciences, as it allows VLMC be learned from sets individual possibly containing missing values; addition, extended account case weights. describes how a...
Multidomain/multichannel sequence analysis has become widely used in social science research to uncover the underlying relationships between two or more observed trajectories parallel. For example, life-course researchers use multidomain study parallel unfolding of multiple domains. In this article, authors conduct a critical review approaches most analysis. The domains is typically analyzed by building joint typology and examining how domain-specific patterns combine with one another within...

We explore how recent data mining-based tools developed in domains such as biomedicine or text mining for extracting interesting knowledge from sequence could be applied to personal life course data. focus on two types of approaches: 'survival' trees that attempt partition the into homogeneous groups regarding their survival characteristics, i.e., duration until a given event occurs and typical discriminating episodes. show these approaches may fruitfully complement outcome more classical...
AbstractThis article proposes a decorated parallel coordinate plot for longitudinal categorical data, featuring jitter mechanism revealing the diversity of observed patterns and allowing tracking each individual pattern, variable point line widths reflecting weighted pattern frequencies, rendering simultaneous events, different filter options highlighting typical patterns. The proposed visual display has been developed describing exploring order event occurrences, but it can be equally...
