similar to: Plotting horizontal dendrograms

I am trying to learn how to format Ascii data files for scan or read into R. Precisely for a quickie project, I found some code (at end of this email) to do exactly what I need: To cluster and graph a dendrogram from package (stats). I am stuck on how to format a text file to run the script. I looked at the dataset USArrests (which would be replaced by my data and labels) using UltraEdit. That

I would like to be able to exert certain types of control over the plotting of dendrograms (representing hierarchical clusterings) that I think is best achieved by modifying the dendrogram object prior to plotting. I am using the "dendrogram" class and associated methods. Define the cluster number of each cluster formed as the corresponding row of the merge object. So, if you are

I'd like to be able to cut dendrograms at a height I specify and then plot the resulting subtrees. I wanted to use the dendrogram object for this purpose because there doesn't seem to be a canned way to cut a hclust object and get a list of hclust objects, but there is a function (cut) that does that for dendrograms. The problem I'm having is that when I plot a dendrogram, I

Hi When I use plot(hclust(dist..)...)...) etc to create a dendrogram of a hierarchial cluster analysis, I end up with a vertical tree. What do I need to do to get a horizontal tree? Also, my users are used to seeing trees who's leaves all "end" at the same place (eg. Like in minitab). Is this possible in R? Thanks Mick Michael Watson Head of Informatics Institute for Animal

Hello, It seems that the plot function for dendrograms does not draw labels when they are too long. > hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave") > dend1 <- as.dendrogram(hc) > dend2 <- cut(dend1, h=70) > dd <- dend2$lower[[1]] > plot(dd) # first label is drawn > attr(dd[[1]], "label") <- "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" > plot(dd) # first label is

Hello to all, I still have this doubt. I'd like to colour the different labels of my dendrogram each one with a different colour. How can I do? I guess I could do using *edgetext* and then *t.col* or* lab.col* but I don't know how to add edgetext to my dendrogram. Can you help me please? Example: require(graphics); require(utils) hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave") (dend1

Dear r-list, I am trying to visually seperate the two main clusters of a dendrogram. The idea is to use: 'edgePar=list(lty=3)' for 'dend1[[1]]' and 'edgePar=list(lty=1)' for 'dend1[[2]]' I have not found a way to solve this. Any suggestions? Patrick hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave") (dend1 <- as.dendrogram(hc)) par(mfrow=c(2,2)) plot(dend1)

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! 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, Is it possible to remove those extra margins on the "sample" axis from plot.dendrogram: par(oma=c(0,0,0,0),mar=c(0,0,0,0)) ddr<-as.dendrogram(hclust(dist(matrix(sample(1:1000,200),nrow=100)))) stats:::plot.dendrogram(ddr,horiz=F,axes=F,yaxs="i",leaflab="none") vs. stats:::plot.dendrogram(ddr,horiz=T,axes=F,yaxs="i",leaflab="none")

I have done a cluster analysis doing: 1-clusNorth <-hclust(dist(Artorious)^2, method="ward") 2-clusNorth$labels <-Artorious$Name ## to show the case names and not numbers 3-dend1 <- as.dendrogram(clusNorth) 4-plot(dend1) My Dendrogram is now showing the names of my cases in the dataframe on the x axis 1 OMNICELL INC COM 2 GETTY IMAGES INC

Is there any way to change the orientation of the labels on the end of the dendrograms to horizontal rather than vertical? If so, how can I do that. _____________________________________________ Patrick Richardson Biostatistician - Program of Translational Medicine Van Andel Research Institute - Webb Lab 333 Bostwick Avenue NE Grand Rapids, MI 49503 ph. 616.234.5787 This email message,

Hi All, i've problem to understand how to work with R to generate a hierarchical clustering my data are in a csv and looks like : idcode,count,temp,sal,depth_m,subs 16001,136,4.308,32.828,63.46,47 16001,109,4.31,32.829,63.09,49 16001,107,4.302,32.822,62.54,47 16001,87,4.318,32.834,62.54,48 16002,82,4.312,32.832,63.28,49 16002,77,4.325,32.828,65.65,46 16002,77,4.302,32.821,62.36,47

Hi, I was wondering if there is more flexibility in the output of dendrograms when plotting a hclust object. I can't seem to find information on how to change the default output of a "hanging" style tree with the axis on the right to a left-to-right plot with and axis on the bottom. Example code follows: library(vegan) #loads the "vegan" module that compuptes ANOSIM

Dear all, I would like to draw a dendrogram and mark some parts/branches (by using "segments") including their labels. If I draw it without specifying the length of x axix, I am able to do that (as in My dendrogram 1 of the following codes). However, if I want to specify the x axix, I am not able to draw marking line (by using "segments") including labels (as in My dendrogram

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

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 all, I would like to save the dendrogram of a hierarchical clustering. Let reshc the result of the fucntion hclust(). To save the dendrogram, I can use the function postscript: postscript(file="hc605.ps") plot(as.dendrogram(reshc),horiz=T,ylab="",main=" ") dev.off() Using the functions plot and as.dendrogram, it is possible to obtain an horizontal tree with

Good afternoon, I ran heatmap and hclust on the same matrix x (strictly, I ran heatmap(x), and hclust(dist(t(x))), and realized that the two dendrograms were slightly different, in that the left-right arrangement of one pair of subclusters (columns) was reversed in the two functions (but all individual columns were grouped correctly). Looking through the code for heatmap as a most definite
