Hello All, I'm having some trouble figuring out what the clearest way to plot my k-means clustering result on an my existing MDS. First I performed MDS on my distance matrix (note: I performed k-means on the MDS coordinates because applying a euclidean distance measure to my raw data would have been inappropriate) canto.MDS<-cmdscale(canto) I then figured out what would be my optimum

Hello, here is a working reproducible example which crashes R using kmeans or gives empty clusters using the nstart option with R 15.2. library(cluster) kmeans(ruspini,4) kmeans(ruspini,4,nstart=2) kmeans(ruspini,4,nstart=4) kmeans(ruspini,4,nstart=10) ?kmeans either we got empty always clusters and or, after some further commands an segfault. regards, Detlef Groth ------------ [R] Empty

Hi All, I was using the following command for performing kmeans for Iris dataset. Kmeans_model<-kmeans(dataFrame[,c(1,2,3,4)],centers=3) This was giving proper results for me. But, in my application we generate the R commands dynamically and there was a requirement that the column names will be sent instead of column indices to the R commands.Hence, to incorporate this, i tried using the R

Regarding a previous question concerning the kmeans function I've tried the same example and I also get a strange result (at least according to what is said in the help of the function kmeans). Apparently, the function is disregarding the initial cluster centers one gives it. According to the help of the function: centers: Either the number of clusters or a set of initial cluster

Hi, I see sth that to me looks like a JIT bug. The program is the KMeans benchmark from the STAMP benchmark suite (http://stamp.stanford.edu). Overwrite ./common/Defines.common.mk with the attached files to make CC/LD customizable. in ./kmeans, for ./kmeans -m40 -n40 -t0.00001 -i inputs/random-n65536-d32-c16.txt -p 1 : make -f Makefile.seq clean CC='llvm-gcc' LD='llvm-gcc

Dear members. I am having problems to understand the kmeans- results in R. I am applying kmeans-algorithms to my big data file, and it is producing the results of the clusters. Q1) Does anybody knows how to find out in which cluster (I have fixed numberofclusters = 5 ) which data have been used? COMMAND (kmeans.results <- kmeans(mydata,centers =5, iter.max= 1000, nstart =10000)) Q2) When I

Sorry, to solve your question I had tried: data(faithful) kmeans(faithful[c(1:20),1],10) Error: empty cluster: try a better set of initial centers But when I run this a second time it will be ok. It seems, that kmeans has problems to initialize good starting points, because of the random choose of these starting initial points. With kmeans(data,k,centers=c(...) the problem can be solved.

Dear R users, When I run the following code, R crashes: require(cclust) x <- matrix(c(0,0,0,1.5,1,-1), ncol=2, byrow=TRUE) cclust(x, centers=x[2:3,], dist="manhattan", method="kmeans") While this works: cclust(x, centers=x[2:3,], dist="euclidean", method="kmeans") I'm posting this here because I am not sure if it is a bug. I've been searching

Hello. Is it possible to choose the distance in the kmeans algorithm? I have m vectors of n components and I want to cluster them using kmeans algorithm but I want to use the Mahalanobis distance or another distance. How can I do it in R? If I use kmeans, I have no option to choose the distance. Thanks in advance, Arnau.

Are you really running the JIT? IT seems like you are just using the static compiler. Unless the code is using some idiom that we happen to miss badly, it's uncommon to see this kind of performance issue. What's the optimization level you are building the benchmark at? Anyway, please file a bug about the performance issues. If the source code is freely available, someone can

Hi, I am using kmeans to cluster a dataset. I test this example: > data<-matrix(scan("data100.txt"),100,37,byrow=T) (my dataset is 100 rows and 37 columns--clustering rows) > c1<-kmeans(data,3,20) > c1 $cluster [1] 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 3 3 3 1 3 1 3 3 1 1 1 1 3 1 3 3 1 1 1 3 3 1 1 3 1 1 1 1 3 3 [38] 3 1 1 1 3 1 1 1 1 3 3 3 1 1 1 1 1 1 3 1 3 1 1 3 1 1 1 1 3 1 1 1 1 1 1 3

I was wondering if there was an R equivalent to the two phased approach that MATLAB uses in performing the Kmeans algorithm. If not is there away that I can determine if the kmeans in R and the kmeans in MATLAB are essentially giving me the same clustering information within a small amount of error? -- View this message in context:

Buen día, no sé si estoy utilizando bien la lista, es la primera vez. Si lo hago mal me corrigen por favor. Sobre tu comentario Pedro, muchas gracias. Lo qeu entiendo con tu sugerencia de set.seed es qeu de esa forma fijas los resultados, pero no estoy seguro si otra agrupación funcione mejor. Es decir me interesa un método de agrupación que genere la "mejor" agrupación y como los

Hello, I'd like to classify data with kmeans algorithm. In my case, I should get 2 clusters in output. Here is my data colCandInd colCandMed 1 82 2950.5 2 83 1831.5 3 1192 2899.0 4 1193 2103.5 The first cluster is the two first lines the 2nd cluster is the two last lines Here is the code: x = colCandList$colCandInd y = colCandList$colCandMed m = matrix(c(x, y),

Hi, I'm playing around with the 'bigmemory' package, and I have finally managed to create some really big matrices. However, only now I realize that there may not be functions made for what I want to do with the matrices... I would like to perform a cluster analysis based on a big.matrix. Googling around I have found indications that a certain kmeans.big.matrix() function should

Hi there, I use function "kmeans" and "clara" to cluster one flow cytometry dataset. By using function "plot", the clusters got from "clara" can be graphed, while "kmeans" not. How can I get the plot of the clusters of "kmeans"? And, I hope to compare the two methods "kmeans" and "clara", or in other word, I

Hi guys, I've been using the kmeans and hclust functions for some time now and was wondering if I could specify a custom metric when passing my data frame into hclust as a distance matrix. Actually, kmeans doesn't even take a distance matrix; it takes the data frame directly. I was wondering if there's a way or if there's a package that lets you create distance matrices from

Dear helpers I'm sorry to insist but I still think there is something wrong with the function kmeans. For instance, let's try the same small example: > dados<-matrix(c(-1,0,2,2.5,7,9,0,3,0,6,1,4),6,2) I will choose observations 3 and 4 for initial centers and just one iteration. The results are > A<-kmeans(dados,dados[c(3,4),],1) > A $cluster [1] 1 1 1 1 2 2 $centers

Using R 2.1.0 on Windows 2 questions: 1. Is there a way to parse the output from kmeans within R? 2. If the answer to 1. is convoluted or impossible, how do you save the output from kmeans in a plain text file for further processing outside R? Example: > ktx<-kmeans(x,12, nstart = 200) I would like to parse ktx within R to extract cluster sizes, sum-of-squares values, etc., OR save ktx in
