In gp3sequences: Transparent Analysis of Ordered Categorical Sequences

Extract representative sequences from clusters

Description

Extract representative sequences from clusters

Usage

extract_representative_sequences(
  clustering,
  distance = NULL,
  n_per_cluster = 1L
)

Arguments

clustering	A clustering result.
distance	Optional distance when absent from clustering.
n_per_cluster	Number of representatives per cluster.

Value

A data frame with cluster, rank, representative ID, and mean within-cluster distance.

Examples

sequences <- data.frame(
  sequence_id = rep(c("s1", "s2", "s3", "s4"), each = 4L),
  sequence_order = rep(1:4, times = 4L),
  state = c("A", "B", "C", "D", "A", "B", "C", "C",
            "D", "C", "B", "A", "D", "C", "A", "A"),
  group = rep(c("g1", "g2"), each = 8L),
  stringsAsFactors = FALSE
)
distance <- compute_sequence_distance(sequences)
fit <- cluster_sequences(distance, k = 2L)
extract_representative_sequences(fit)
