plotMDS | R Documentation |
This function produces an MDS scatterplot based on the distance matrix of the densityCluster object (if there is only the coordinates information, a distance matrix will be calculate first), and, if clusters are defined, colours each observation according to cluster affiliation. Observations belonging to a cluster core is plotted with filled circles and observations belonging to the halo with hollow circles. This plotting is not suitable for running large datasets (for example datasets with > 1000 samples). Users are suggested to use other methods, for example tSNE, etc. to visualize their clustering results too.
