Calculate the cluster ID from the optimal cluster per metric for each individual. annotateClustersByMetric

Description

Return a named list, where each metric name is linked to a data frame containing the evaluated individuals, their score for the specified metric, and the cluster id in which each individual is classified. This cluster assignment is performed by calculating the optimal k value by evaluome.

Usage

annotateClustersByMetric(df, k.range, bs, seed)

Arguments

df

Input data frame. The first column denotes the identifier of the evaluated individuals. The remaining columns contain the metrics used to evaluate the individuals. Rows with NA values will be ignored.

k.range

Range of k values in which the optimal k will be searched

bs

Bootstrap re-sample param.

seed

Random seed to be used.

Value

A named list resulting from computing the optimal cluster for each metric. Each metric is a name in the named list, and its content is a data frame that includes the individuals, the value for the corresponding metric, and the cluster id in which the individual has been asigned according to the optimal cluster.

Examples

data("ontMetrics")
annotated_clusters=annotateClustersByMetric(ontMetrics, k.range=c(2,3), bs=20, seed=100)
annotated_clusters[['ANOnto']]

Goodness of classifications.

Description

The goodness of the classifications are assessed by validating the clusters generated. For this purpose, we use the Silhouette width as validity index. This index computes and compares the quality of the clustering outputs found by the different metrics, thus enabling to measure the goodness of the classification for both instances and metrics. More precisely, this goodness measurement provides an assessment of how similar an instance is to other instances from the same cluster and dissimilar to all the other clusters. The average on all the instances quantifies how appropriately the instances are clustered. Kaufman and Rousseeuw suggested the interpretation of the global Silhouette width score as the effectiveness of the clustering structure. The values are in the range [0,1], having the following meaning:

  • There is no substantial clustering structure: [-1, 0.25].

  • The clustering structure is weak and could be artificial: ]0.25, 0.50].

  • There is a reasonable clustering structure: ]0.50, 0.70].

  • A strong clustering structure has been found: ]0.70, 1].

Goodness of classifications for a range of k clusters.

Description

The goodness of the classifications are assessed by validating the clusters generated for a range of k values. For this purpose, we use the Silhouette width as validity index. This index computes and compares the quality of the clustering outputs found by the different metrics, thus enabling to measure the goodness of the classification for both instances and metrics.
