similar to: Different cluster orderings from cutree() and cut.dendrogram()

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=

Hello all, A question/suggestion: I was wondering if there is a chance of changing stats::cutree to be S3 and use cutree.hclust? For example: cutree <- function(tree, k = NULL, h = NULL,...) { UseMethod("cutree") } cutree.hclust <- stats::cutree # This will obviously need the actual content of stats::cutree This would be nicer for people like me to add new methods to

When I use the function cutree(), the numbers of the clusters are not in the same order as the plotted dendrogram. Is there any way of sorting them so that they match the tree? Is it possible to plot a dendrogram horizontally, preferably with the branches to the right? This would enable some practical composite plots, e.g. labels that were an entire table with several columns of information, or

Hello, I've been clustering my data using hclust and cutting the resulting tree with cutree. Separately, I visualize the clusterings with heatmap. Is it possible to have the dendrogram on the heatmap reflect the cutree results? That is, instead of having one large dendrogram, it would have 4 or 25 in the example below. Any guidance on if that's possible or not, and what kinds of

Dear R Helpers, I read carefully the documentation and all postings on the hclust and cutree functions, however some aspects of the tree ordering and cluster assignment performed by these functions remain unclear to me, so I would very much appreciate your help in making sure I get them right. Here is an example, with values chosen to illustrate the problems. I have a set of five profiles

Hi, this is rather a (presumed) bug report than a question because I can solve my personal statistical problem by working with hclust instead of agnes. I have done a complete linkage clustering on a dist object dm with 30 objects with agnes (R 1.8.0 on RedHat) and I want to obtain the partition that results from a cut at height=0.4. I run > cl1a <- agnes(dm, method="complete")

I've found that while cutree() and rect.hclust() make the same classes for a given height in the dendrogram, the actual labeling of the classes is different. For example, both produce the same 4 classes but class 1 according to cutree() is class 4 according to rect.hclust(). Would it be possible that future versions provide the same labeling? rect.hclust() is useful to display the classes

Hi, I have the distance matrix computed and I feed it to hclust function. The plot function produces a dense dendrogram as well. But, the cutree function applied does not produce the desired list. Here is the code x=data.frame(similarity_matrix) colnames(x) = c(source_tags_vec) rownames(x) = c(source_tags_vec) clust_tree=hclust(as.dist(x),method="complete") plot(clust_tree)

Hello, I would like to cut a hclust tree into several groups at a specific similarity. I assume this can be achieved by specifying the "h" argument with the specified similarity, e.g.: clust<-hclust(dist,"average") cut<-cutree(clust,h=0.65) Now, I would like to draw rectangles around the branches of the dendrogram highlighting the corresponding clusters, as is done by

Dear R user, I am a biochemist/bioinformatician, at the moment working on protein clusterings by conformation similarity. I only started seriously working with R about a couple of months ago. I have been able so far to read my way through tutorials and set-up my hierarchical clusterings. My problem is that I cannot find a way to obtain information on the rooting of specific nodes, i.e. of

Hi, I have a gene expression experiment with 20 samples and 25000 genes each. I'd like to perform clustering on these. It turned out to become much faster when I transform the underlying matrix with t(matrix). Unfortunately then I'm not anymore able to use cutree to access individual clusters. In general I do something like this: hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave")

Hi Everyone, I'm trying to use cutree to get the clusters after hclust. What I used is: mycluster<-cutree(cnclust,h=0.5) Now, my problem is, how can I get the actual clusters? Thanks! Best, Baoqiang Cao

I am making heatmaps for a dataset (~ 300*600 matrix) with the following R script (I am not familiar with R and this is the first time I am using it). library("gplots") library("Cairo") mydata <- read.csv(file="data.csv", header=TRUE, sep=",") rownames(mydata)=mydata$Name mydata <- mydata[,2:297] mydatamatrix <- data.matrix(mydata) mydatascale

I generated a heatmap in R using the following commands: > mydata <- read.csv(file="Data.csv", header=TRUE, sep=",") > mydata <- mydata[rowSums(mydata[,-1]^2) >0, ] > rownames(mydata)=mydata$Name > mydata <- mydata[,2:253] > mydatamatrix <- data.matrix(mydata) > mydatascale <- t(scale(t(mydatamatrix))) > hr <-

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 =
