Abstract

The Generalized Inner Product SCALing (GIPSCAL) model is a specialized tool for analyzing square asymmetric tables within asymmetric multidimensional scaling (MDS), with applications in sociology (e.g., social mobility tables) and marketing (e.g., brand switching data). This paper presents the development of an efficient numerical algorithm for solving the three-way GIPSCAL problem. We focus on vector ε -algorithm-accelerated fixed-point iterations, detailing the underlying acceleration principles. Extensive numerical experiments show that the proposed method achieves acceleration performance comparable to polynomial extrapolation and Anderson acceleration. Furthermore, compared to continuous-time projected gradient flow methods and first- and second-order Riemannian optimization algorithms from the Manopt toolbox, our approach demonstrates superior computational efficiency and scalability.
