Biplot models applied to cancer mortality rates.
"A graphical method developed by Gabriel to display the rows and columns of a matrix is applied to tables of age- and period-specific cancer mortality rates.  It is particularly useful when the pattern of age-specific rates changes with time.  Trends in age-specific rates and changes in the age distribution are identified as projections.  Three examples [from England and Wales] are given."
