Agnes and Hclust
Hi, I want to know if there is a difference between the two hierarchical methods Agnes and hclust when there are used with the same method and the same metric on the same data! I ask this question because I executed the following program: hc <- hclust(dist(AGRIINSTTableFinaleCR), "ward") agnes<-agnes(dist(AGRIINSTTableFinaleCR),method="ward") And clusters are not the

Ward clustering problem
I have a training set of data for known classes with 5 observations of 12 variables for each class. I want to use this information to classify new data into classes which are known to be different to those in the training set but each new class may contain one or more observations. The distribution of within class distances is expected to be similar for all classes and this is found to be the

Donde puedo encontrar la explicación del cambio en el calculo de hclust(...'ward.D2')?
Sabrán disculparme; no solo no encontré cómo calcular como lo hacía R antes, si no que no encuentro una explicación de autoridad. Si encontré la mención al cambio... además del propio cambio. Pero, digo, habrá algún sitio o foro en el que un montón de matemáticos que saben una barbaridad y hablan de tal manera que yo no entiendo, diran algo así como "no, che, eso no está bien así, hay que

calculation of inertial difference with huygens theorem in ward clustering ?
Hello to the R people, within ward clustering the distance calculated to decide the clustering of 2 subsets (h1 and h2) is the variation of inertia : d(h1,h2)=I(h1Uh2)-I(h1)-I(h2); i've been said that a way to calculate faster this d(h1,h2) is using the huygens theorem decomposing the inertia into "the inertia to the centroid + the distance to an axe" (that's my version ...). My

RNN Algorithm for Ward Clustering ?
Hi R people, i'm looking for the Reciprocal Nearest Neighbour algorithm applied to Ward clustering; I know that it is explained in details in the following book: Downs, G. M.; Willett, P. In Advanced Computer-Assisted Techniques in Drug Discovery; van de Waterbeemd, H., Ed.; VCH: Weinheim, 1994; Vol. 3. but cannot order copies it without knowing the pages involved; could someone

clustering with hclust
Hi everybody, I have a problem with a cluster analysis. I am trying to use hclust, method=ward. The Ward method works with SQUARED Euclidean distances. Hclust demands "a dissimilarity structure as produced by dist". Yet, dist does not seem to produce a table of squared euclidean distances, starting from cosines. In fact, computing manually the squared euclidean distances from cosines

question about centroid-linkage (cluster analysis)
Dear R community, I would be greatful if somebody could shed light on the following. I have created a set of 6 points to check how centroid agglomeration works in cluster analysis: > Y <- data.frame(x=c(-1,1,1,-1,10,12),y=c(1,1,-1,-1,0,0)) It is quite intuitive to understand that the last clusters to be joined will be {1,2,3,4} with {5,6}. Now, the centroid for the first cluster has

plot.dendrogram and plot.hclust ZOOM into the height?
Hi, I clustered a distance matrix and would like to draw it using plot.hclust or plot.dendrogram. The dendrogram is not informative because I have a few extremely small dissimilarities in the distance matrix (e.g. 0), but most of the other distances are in the range 1e10+-5000. I would like to show the tree only for the height of 1e10+-5000 but unfortunately their are no parameter like

Colouring hclust() trees
I have a data set with 6 variables and 251 cases. The people who supplied me with this data set believe that it falls naturally into three groups, and have given me a rule for determining group number from these 6 variables. If I do scaled.stuff <- scale(stuff, TRUE, c(...the design ranges...)) stuff.dist <- dist(scaled.stuff) stuff.hc <- hclust(stuff.dist)

plot.hclust: strange behaviour with "manufactured" hclust object
I've been trying to get plot.hclust to work with a hclust object I created and have not had much success. It seems that there is some "hidden" characteristic of a hclust object that I can't see. This is most easily seen in the following example, where plot.hclust works on one object, but when this object is "dumped" and then re-read, plot.hclust no longer works. Is

heatmap and hclust
Hi all, The function heatmap uses the functions dist and hclust with default parameters. How to change these parameters? For example, i want to use the ward criterion for hierarchical clustering with binary distance. Best regards, Olivier.

hclust(stats) merge matrix interpretation
Hi, We are trying to interpret the clusters generated by hclust method of R "stats" package. The problem here is when i get the hc$order then there is some order, while exporting to file that order is lost. Here is the example code and their results: > hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave") > plot(hc) > hc$label [1] "Alabama" "Alaska"

Hclust tree to Figtree w/ branch lengths
Hi, I'm doing hierarchical clustering, and want to export my dendrogram to a tree-viewing/editing software. I can do this by converting the data to Newick format (hc2Newick in ctc package), but I can't get branch lengths to show in the resulting phylogram. I figured it might help to convert my hclust object into a phylo object (as.phylo in ape package), but the following lines give me

hclust and cutree: identifying branches as classes
Good afternoon, After cuting a hierarchical tree using cutree(), how to check correspondances between classes and branches? This is what we do: srndpchc <- hclust(dist(srndpc$x[1:1000,1:3]),method="ward") #creation of hierarchical tree plclust(srndpchc,hmin=20000) #visualisation srndpchc20000 = cutree(srndpchc,h=20000) #returns 4 classes table(srndpchc20000 ) srndclass20000 =

Is there a way to print branch distances for hclust function?
The R function hclust is used to do cluster analysis, but based on R help I see no way to print the actual fusion distances (that is, the vertical distances for each connected branch pairs seen in the cluster dendrogram). Any ideas? I'd like to use them test for significant differences from the mean fusion distance (i.e. The Best Cut Test). To perform a cluster analysis I'm using: x

plot.hclust: strange behaviour with "manufactured"
This worked for me with your example: source("dumpdata.R") storage.mode(x.hc$merge) <- "integer" plot(x.hc) (R-1.4.1 compiled from source on WinNT4.)
