Sorry for the long message. I'm doing my best to try to explain myself. I have fitted a spline to my data, I have fitted a spline, filled in the missing data by replicating the spline coefficients associated to the last node. I obtained a number of dendograms by different combination of distance and link-method by calling DIST and AGNES. The agglomerative coefficient is very high (~ 0.99) for

I'm sorry if this is a trivial question. My system is R 6.33 on Win98 with basic libraries plus the "cluster" library. I'm using "agnes" and "hclust" functions to perform cluster analysis on big data sets. Looking at the documentation for libraries "mva" and "cluster" I can't find out a function like S-Plus "cutree" to get

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 have Windows XP Professional Version 2002 and the R-Version 2.1.1. I did cluster analysis with the cluster package and the agnes (method = ?ward?). The results are satisfactory. But the dendrogram of agnes is confused to work with the results. Is there a tool, I can get a clear arrangement of the results for the cluster analysis. For example a matrix with different numbers for each group.

Hi There, I'm working on some cluster analyses on a large data-set using hclust with Wards method and Manhattan (city block) distance measures. I've created dendrograms to illustrate the clustering criteria, but would like to create a plot to examine for the classic elbow criterion to use in determining the best number of clusters. Ideally I'd like to plot percent variance explained

The data "one" is a vector of 553 observations agglone<-agnes(one, metric = "manhattan", stand = TRUE) plot(agglone,which.plots=2, nmax=150) My problem is in the dendogram, I can not see the nodes because it is too crowded. I have attached the diagram. Any help is more than welcome. Thank you a lot!!!

Hello List, I am trying to implement a hierarchical cluster using the hclust method agglomerative single linkage method with a small wrinkle. I would like to cluster a set of numbers on a number line only if they are within a distance of 500. I would then like to print out the members of this list. So far I can put a vector: > x<-c(2,10,200,300,600,700) into a distance matrix: >

Well, you don't give much of an example.... I'm replying CC to the R mailing list. Please ask questions there, rather than adressing individuals for basic help. Here is one; does it answer your question ? data(agriculture) ag.ag <- agnes(agriculture) class(ag.ag) pltree(ag.ag) # the dendrogram, if you want to see it ## cut the dendrogram -> get cluster assignments: (ck3 <-

Hi there, is there any R-function for k-nearest neighbour agglomerative hierarchical clustering? By this I mean standard agglomerative hierarchical clustering as in hclust or agnes, but with the k-nearest neighbour distance between clusters used on the higher levels where there are at least k>1 distances between two clusters (single linkage is 1-nearest neighbour clustering)? Best regards,

I would like to get an hierarchical clustering tree with bootstrap values indicated on the nodes, as in pvclust. The problem is that I have only distance matrix instead of the raw data, required for pvclust. Is there a way to get it? fit1 <- hclust(dist) # an object of class '"dist" plot(fit1) # dendogram without p values library(pvclust) fit2 <- pvclust(raw.data,

Dear R I recently asked for a cluster analysis Using * cluster.results <- hclust(iris.dist, method="complete") * but nothing happened i.e the previous scatterplot matrix still showed up whereas I was expecting a dendogram. Could it be that because I had used cutree before on the scatter plots that it somehow mucked it up. I tried detach then attach and commenced making the data

Hi, i have the following problem: I am using k-means algorithm for clustering. But instead of using randomized centers, I would like to use centers created by hierarchical clustering. So I want to apply "hclust" on my data set (in this case the iris data), getting a solution by "cutree", calculating the means/centers of the resulting clusters and use these centers as starting

Dear Dr. Liaw Andy: I have a few more questions about your heatmap function. actually heatmap is what I am looking for. heatmap(x, Rowv, Colv, distfun = dist, hclustfun = hclust, add.expr, scale=c("row", "column", "none"), na.rm = TRUE, ...) my data is a XNEW, > dim(XNEW) [1] 554 335 554 genes, 335 samples. now I want to use 1-CORR as a distance

Hi. I did write those functions, and sent them (I thought) to one of the R maintainers to see whether they would be appropriate for inclusion (because I'd seen some requests on the mailing lists). However, I'm happy to post them -- I should have thought of it before. WARNING: I've tested these functions on some data arising in my work and also on the USArrests data that comes with

Hello, I have used the functions agnes and cutree to cluster my data (4977 objects x 22 variables) into 8 clusters. I would like to refine the solution using a k-means or similar algorithm, setting the initial cluster centres as the group means from agnes. However my data matrix has NA's in it and the function kmeans does not appear to accept this? > dim(centres) [1] 8 22 > dim(data)
