cluster_genes: Clusters genes using mixtures of normal distributions

In EMMIXgene: A Mixture Model-Based Approach to the Clustering of Microarray Expression Data

Clusters genes using mixtures of normal distributions

Description

Sorts genes into clusters using mixtures of normal distributions with covariance matrices restricted to be multiples of the identity matrix.

Usage

cluster_genes(gen, g = NULL)

Arguments

gen	an EMMIXgene object produced by select_genes().
g	The desired number of gene clusters. If not specified will be selected automatically on the basis of BIC.

Value

An array containing the clustering.

Examples

#only run on first 100 genes for speed
alon_sel <- select_genes(alon_data[seq_len(100), ]) 
alon_clust<- cluster_genes(alon_sel , 2)
