similar to: plot.hclust: strange behaviour with "manufactured" hclust object

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.)

This question concerns rpart's facility for user-defined functions that accomplish splitting. I was interested in modifying the code so that in each terminal node, a linear regression is fit to the data. It seems that from the allowable inputs in the user-defined functions, that this may not be possible, since they have the form: function(y, wt, parms) (in the case of the

library(mva) data(USArrests) hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave") plot(hc) # OK dump(c("hc"), "tst") rm(hc) source("tst") plot(hc) # Error in plot.hclust(hc) : invalid dendrogram input The same problem occurs with dput/dget --please do not edit the information below-- Version: platform =

Thanks to Andy and Thomas, Reading help(hclust) more carefully would have done it but sometimes you do not see the wood for the trees... So hc$merge does exactly what I want. I have never been aware of the command str to get the structure of an R-object. It seems pretty useful to me.

Buenas tardes a todos, Estoy interesado en cambiar los límites del eje y en un dendograma construído utilizando la función hclust(). A continuación un ejemplo: hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave") plot(hc) Hasta aquí todo bien. Si quisiera cambiar los límites del eje "y" de c(0, 200)? Al usar plot(hc, ylim = c(0, 200)) no observo efecto alguno. Qué puedo hacer?

Dear R-users, I tried to receive the merge details of a clustering by using the summary function of hclust. For illustration I use the Longley data as done by Prof Ripley (Wed 11 Apr 2001) d <- dist(longley.y) d <- d/max(d) hc <- hclust(d, "ave") But instead of getting a matrix for $merge I get: >summary(hc) Length Class Mode merge 30 -none- numeric

Dear All According to the identify.hclust documentation the function "cuts the tree at the vertical position of the pointer and highlights the cluster containing the horizontal position of the pointer". When I carry out this, the tree isn't cut where I click - in fact, there seems to be a limit below which I cannot go. Consider the following code: mat <- matrix(rnorm(5000),

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)

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, I am new to clustering in R and I have a dataset with approximately 17,000 rows and 8 columns with each data point a numerical character with three decimal places. I would like to cluster the 8 columns so that I get a dendrogram as an output. So, I am simply creating a distance matrix of my data, using the 'hclust' function, and then plotting the results (see below, my data is

Hi! I am newbee to R and I am facing the problem in plotting the dedrogram with lot of objects. The lines and labels are overlapped very badly, and writing the graphic to postscript and zooming there is not helping either. I tried cut.dendrogram method, but getting the error that it doesn't exist even though I get the man pages for it. I would not find any solution in web as well, and I

Hi R helpers... I am having troubles because of the discrepancy between the dendrogram plotted from hclust and what is wrote in the hc2Newick file. I've got a matrix C: > hc <- hclust(dist(C)) > plot(hc) with the: > write(hc2Newick(hc),file='test.newick') both things draw completely different "trees"... I have also tried with the raw distance matrix D and

Hello, I'm trying to do a cluster analysis on a large data set. I tried it out with a smaller one first, but I got this error: > hc<-hclust(dist(x),"ave") Error: cannot allocate vector of size 4129151 Kb The data sample used (i.e. "x") is a numerical data set of size 32513 by 31 Does anyone know how I can do this analysis? Is R capable of this

I use the following code to scan a (limited) parameter space of clustering strategies ... data <- read.table(... dataTranspose <- t(data) distMeth <- c("euclidean", "maximum", "manhattan", "canberra", "binary" ) clustMeth <- c("ward",

Hello everyone, Does anyone know how to implement the argument "unit" in R's plclust function ? I used to use Splus where this argument exists but it has not been implemented in R's plclust. The reason why I switched from Splus to R is that Ward's method is not implemented for S's hclust whereas it is implemented for R's hclust. What I would need is S's plclust

Hello, I'm having trouble figuring out how to see resulting groups (clusters) from my hclust() output. I have a very large matrix of 4371 plots and 29 species, so simply looking at the graph is impossible. There must be a way to 'print' the results to a table that shows which plots were in what group, correct? I've attached the matrix I'm working with (the whole thing

I am doing cluster analysis [hclust(Dist, method="average")] on data that potentially contains redundant objects. As expected, the inclusion of redundant objects affects the clustering result, i.e., the data a1, = a2, = a3, b, c, d, e1, = e2 is likely to cluster differently from the same data without the redundancy, i.e., a1, b, c, d, e1. This is apparent when the outcome is visualized

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 <-

howdy R friends, I've searched CRAN but to no avail... I'm trying to use mva's hclust and print out for say 10 clusters in batch. How do I do this? It's unclear if I can use cutree. thanks, John Strumila -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send
