Abstract

Lots of tourism data vary over time for that reason the quality processing techniques are
demanded to relate such a series. This study concerns the covariance, resp. variance analysis of
arrivals to regions of the Czech Republic using static multivariate methods of partial least squares
(PLS), resp. principal component analysis (PCA). In addition, an analysis based on eigenvalue
decomposition of Euclidean similarity matrix is employed. The relation of profiles and the direction
of processes using linear trends in annual data are studied between arrivals of non-residents and
residents. The results are attempted to connect them with some economic parameters and global
events.
