Description

A method to cluster a number of samples using a relational (dissimila

Usage

rclust.weights(groups, dist)

Arguments

groups	cluster identity vector
dist	original pairwise distance matrix

Details

This function creates an n by c sized matrix, where n is the number of samples and c is the number of groups, of the average distances for each sample from itself to all the members of another group (c_{i}).

Value

A matrix of of size n (samples) by c (groups).
