Hi all, Here's an interesting (for me, at least!) problem I came across: I have a correlation matrix, let's say with 6 variables, A to F, as column headings and the same 6 as row headings. The matrix is filled with correlation coefficients. Therefore, the diagonal is all 1's, and each of the two triangles formed by the diagonal has the same 15 correlation coefficients. I need to

Hi, I am new to R...a recent convert from SAS. I have a dataset that looks like this: SEQ A1 A2 A 532.5 554.5 B 25.5 35.5 C 265.2 522.2 D 245.55 521.56 E 546.52 141.52 F 243.25 32.56 G 452.55 635.56 H 15.14 16.54 I 543.4 646.56 J 54.4 654.5 K 646.5 64.54 L 645.4 614.46 M 646.54 634.46 I want to make a histogram

I've recently started playing with the RxFax application on my Asterisk box. I've had success, mostly, but I've had some failures, too... The most recent failure is specific to receiving from a particular fax machine -- a "Canon Laser Class 9000S". The TIF images received are readable, but the aspect ratio is stretched horizonatlly (or squished vertically). Is this a

Hi, I'm using R on Windows and upgraded the computer memory to 4GB, as R was telling me that it is out of memory (for making heatmaps). It still says that the maximum memory is 1024Mb, even if I increase it using memory.limit and memory.size. Is there a way to permanently increase R's memory quota to 4GB? Please help. Many thanks, -DS. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

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

Hello, I have been getting squished faxes very reliably when sending through Asterisk using txfax. It looks as if all horizontal white space has been removed. Interestingly it is perfectly repeatable, which seems to rule out timing related issues. My configuration is: Asterisk SVN-branch-1.2-r7337M spandsp-0.0.2pre21 ( though I have tried a 0.0.3 snapshot as well as 0.0.2pre25 ) libtiff

Has anyone successfully created a PNG file for a dendrogram? I am able to successfully launch and view a dendrogram in Quartz. However, the dendrogram is quite large (too large to read on a computer screen), so I am trying to save it to a file (1000x4000 pixels) for viewing in other apps. However, whenever I try to initiate a PNG device, I get a "need finitite 'xlim' values"

Dear I am using the 'as.dendrogram' function from the 'stats' library to convert from an hclust object to a dendrogram with a dataset of size ~30000 (an example code is below). I need the dendrogram structure to use the "dendrapply" and "attributes" functions and to access the child nodes, I do not need any of the plot properties. The problem is that it

Hi Sorry if this is in the help :-S I've looked at example(dendrogram) and though it gives some indication of what I want, it doesn't do all. OK, so here is what I want to do: draw a tree, and then have an action, on user-click, to either draw a sub tree or a plot of the data. I also want users to be able to search for a particular label and have it highlighted on the tree, say in

Hi all, This is the first time I'm writing to R-devel, and this time I'm just asking for the purpose for a certain line of code in stats::as.hclust.dendrogram, which comes up as I'm trying to fix dendextend. The line in question is at line 128 of dendrogram.R in R-3.3.3, at stats::as.hclust.dendrogram: stopifnot(length(s) == 2L, all( vapply(s, is.integer, NA) )) Is there any

Dear R users, I have created data for hierarchical agglomerative cluster analysis which consist of the merging pairs and the agglomeration heights, e.g. something like my.merge <- matrix(c(-1,-2,-3,1), ncol=2, byrow=TRUE) my.height <- c(0.5, 1) I'd like to plot a corresponding dendrogram but I don't know how to convert my data to achieve this. Is it possible to create a

Hello, a. when I use hclust with the methods media, centroid, and mcquitty, and plot the results, the dendrograms have lines that are crossing each other. Is this ok? b. My next question refers to plot.dendrogram: How can I use parameters as "hang" or "cex" here? E.g. for st <- as.dendrogram(subtreeshc[[x]]) I would like to have something like this, where cex and hang

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 <-

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

Hi, I clustered a distance matrix and would like to draw it using plot.hclust or plot.dendrogram. The dendrogram is not informative because I have a few extremely small dissimilarities in the distance matrix (e.g. 0), but most of the other distances are in the range 1e10+-5000. I would like to show the tree only for the height of 1e10+-5000 but unfortunately their are no parameter like

Hi all, I've been doing some investigation to see if it is possible to implement an hclust/dendrogram related requirement that I've been given. So far ?hclust and a lot of googling haven't provided the information I'm looking for (I've been using R sporadically for a year). The requirement I have is to: On a dendrogram plot, draw points at various merge locations, based on

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 <-

I have tried to use rect.hclust() to draw a rectangle around a set of leaves, but am running into trouble. The rect.hclust() is drawing two rects instead of one, and of the wrong size: -------------------- scoreClusterObj <- hclust(scoreDistanceObj, method=clustMethod) order <- scoreClusterObj$order orderedLabels <- rep(0, length(order)) for (orderIndex in 1:length(order)) { # this

Note that cophenetic.default (which works on the output of hclust(dist(X))) uses the row names of X as labels. as.dendrogram.hclust does not retain those row names so cophenetic.dendrogram cannot use them (so it orders them based on the topology of the dendrogram).

?hclust listed several references. I'm wondering what is the best resource that explained clustering algorithms, dendrogram and various clustering algorithms that are implemented in R. Thank you!
