hcaSpectra: Plot HCA Results of a Spectra Object

In ChemoSpec: Exploratory Chemometrics for Spectroscopy

Description

A wrapper which carries out HCA and plots a dendrogram colored by the information in a Spectra object. Many methods for computing the clusters and distances are available.

Usage

hcaSpectra(spectra, c.method = "complete", d.method = "euclidean",
  use.sym = FALSE, leg.loc = "topright", ...)

Arguments

spectra	An object of S3 class Spectra.
c.method	A character string describing the clustering method; must be acceptable to hclust.
d.method	A character string describing the distance calculation method; must be acceptable as a method in rowDist.
use.sym	A logical; if true, use no color and use lower-case letters to indicate group membership.
leg.loc	Character; if "none" no legend will be drawn. Otherwise, any string acceptable to legend.
...	Other parameters to be passed to the plotting functions.

Value

A list, containing an object of class hclust and an object of class dendrogram. The side effect is a plot.
