similar to: how to colour labels (each label with a colour) in a dendrogram?

Hello to all, I'd like to colour the different labels of my dendrogram. How can I do? I guess I could to using *edgetext* and then* t.col* or *lab.col* but I don't know how to add edgetext to my dendrogram. Can you help me please? Example: require(graphics); require(utils) hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave") plot(dend1) labels (USArrests) [[1]] # to know how many cities

I am trying to learn how to format Ascii data files for scan or read into R. Precisely for a quickie project, I found some code (at end of this email) to do exactly what I need: To cluster and graph a dendrogram from package (stats). I am stuck on how to format a text file to run the script. I looked at the dataset USArrests (which would be replaced by my data and labels) using UltraEdit. That

Dear r-list, I am trying to visually seperate the two main clusters of a dendrogram. The idea is to use: 'edgePar=list(lty=3)' for 'dend1[[1]]' and 'edgePar=list(lty=1)' for 'dend1[[2]]' I have not found a way to solve this. Any suggestions? Patrick hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave") (dend1 <- as.dendrogram(hc)) par(mfrow=c(2,2)) plot(dend1)

Hi I have a distance matrix which is computed by user defined method. I would like to plot the dendrogram. I would like to use different color and want the leaves laying down bottom. The script like this. I am not familiar with R. I followed the example shown in http://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-devel/library/stats/html/dendrogram.html dist.obj <- as.dist(matrix.distance) hc.obj <-

I would like to be able to exert certain types of control over the plotting of dendrograms (representing hierarchical clusterings) that I think is best achieved by modifying the dendrogram object prior to plotting. I am using the "dendrogram" class and associated methods. Define the cluster number of each cluster formed as the corresponding row of the merge object. So, if you are

Core developers, I couldn't find any simple way to send a vector of colors to apply to each terminal in plot.dendrogram() or plot.hclust()---I asked R-help about it a few weeks ago and didn't get any response---so I hacked that functionality into the plot.dendrgram code (see below for hacked function plus examples).... Is there any chance this functionality could be added to the

Hello, It seems that the plot function for dendrograms does not draw labels when they are too long. > hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave") > dend1 <- as.dendrogram(hc) > dend2 <- cut(dend1, h=70) > dd <- dend2$lower[[1]] > plot(dd) # first label is drawn > attr(dd[[1]], "label") <- "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" > plot(dd) # first label is

Hi! In the example: hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave") dend1 <- as.dendrogram(hc) dend2 <- cut(dend1, h=70) Do the branches "Branch 1", "Branch 2", "Branch 2"...in dend2$upper str(dend2$upper) --[dendrogram w/ 2 branches and 4 members at h = 152] |--[dendrogram w/ 2 branches and 2 members at h = 77.6] | |--leaf "Branch 1" (h=

I am using hclust and plot to produce dendrograms. Using my input data I am able to complete an analysis and obtain a vertical plot. I want to be able to plot the dendrogram horizontally.I am using version 2.6 of R and have updated my packages recently. Using the sample script for dendrograms I can produce a horizontal plot using the instruction horiz = TRUE in plot(). When I use the same

I'd like to be able to cut dendrograms at a height I specify and then plot the resulting subtrees. I wanted to use the dendrogram object for this purpose because there doesn't seem to be a canned way to cut a hclust object and get a list of hclust objects, but there is a function (cut) that does that for dendrograms. The problem I'm having is that when I plot a dendrogram, I

Dear R-Help, I have a clustering problem with hclust that I hope someone can help me with. Consider the classic hclust example: hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave") plot(hc) I would like to cut the tree up in such a way so as to avoid small clusters, so that we get a minimum number of items in each cluster, and therefore avoid singletons. e.g. in this example, you can see

Hi, currently the "label" and "edgetext" attributes of a dendrogram are coerced to character before they are added to a plot with `text'. Is there a specific reason to do so (expect for the determination of the size of the character string to be plotted)? Otherwise one could plot the attributes directly via diff dendrogram.R /usr/src/R/src/library/stats/R/dendrogram.R

Hi all, Hi Gavin, thx for your help i finally found out what i want to do and how to fix it. just needed to get some more level my cut level was too small... two question remain... a) can i somehow scale the twigs after cutting ? b) how can i label the nodes and how to label which one... thx !! -m.

Dear all, I have been trying the following without avail and would be very grateful for any help. From a dendrogram (recursive list of lists with some structure), I would like to obtain some information of the component lists and of the enclosing list at the same time. In dendrogram-speech I basically would like the label of the leaf and the height of the enclosing branch. A dendrogram example

I have done a cluster analysis doing: 1-clusNorth <-hclust(dist(Artorious)^2, method="ward") 2-clusNorth$labels <-Artorious$Name ## to show the case names and not numbers 3-dend1 <- as.dendrogram(clusNorth) 4-plot(dend1) My Dendrogram is now showing the names of my cases in the dataframe on the x axis 1 OMNICELL INC COM 2 GETTY IMAGES INC

Hi When I use plot(hclust(dist..)...)...) etc to create a dendrogram of a hierarchial cluster analysis, I end up with a vertical tree. What do I need to do to get a horizontal tree? Also, my users are used to seeing trees who's leaves all "end" at the same place (eg. Like in minitab). Is this possible in R? Thanks Mick Michael Watson Head of Informatics Institute for Animal

The problem: =========== Once a dendrogram has a branch with both a line type AND a color (which is a character color), the plot.dendrogram function will not plot and return an error. I say this is a bug because (I believe), we would like a dendrogram to be able to use character colors, while also allowing control over line types. This e-mail includes an example, and what I think a solution

Dear all, I would like to draw a dendrogram and mark some parts/branches (by using "segments") including their labels. If I draw it without specifying the length of x axix, I am able to do that (as in My dendrogram 1 of the following codes). However, if I want to specify the x axix, I am not able to draw marking line (by using "segments") including labels (as in My dendrogram

Hello, I have been using the "cophenetic" function for objects of class "dendrogram" and I have realised that it gives different results when it is used with objects of class "hclust". For instance, running the first example in the help file of the "cophenetic" function, d1 <- dist(USArrests) hc <- hclust(d1, "ave") d2 <-

Dear All, How can the height of a leaf be extracted from a dendrogram? Sure, I can print it, but I am not able to, say, store it in an object. I think I understand that the height is a property of the split, not the leaf itself, but the printing functions display a "height" or "h" (which changes with "hang") and that is what I want. Obviously, the info is there
