Non-Parametric Jackstraw for K-means Clustering using RcppArmadillo

Description

Test the cluster membership for K-means clustering, using K-means++ initialization

Usage

jackstraw_kmeanspp(
  dat,
  kmeans.dat,
  s = NULL,
  B = NULL,
  center = TRUE,
  covariate = NULL,
  verbose = FALSE,
  pool = TRUE,
  ...
)

Arguments

dat	a matrix with m rows as variables and n columns as observations.
kmeans.dat	an output from applying ClusterR::KMeans_rcpp onto dat.
s	a number of “synthetic” null variables. Out of m variables, s variables are independently permuted.
B	a number of resampling iterations.
center	a logical specifying to center the rows. By default, TRUE.
covariate	a model matrix of covariates with n observations. Must include an intercept in the first column.
verbose	a logical specifying to print the computational progress. By default, FALSE.
pool	a logical specifying to pool the null statistics across all clusters. By default, TRUE.
...	optional arguments to control the k-means clustering algorithm (refers to ClusterR::KMeans_rcpp).

Details

K-means clustering assign m rows into K clusters. This function enable statistical evaluation if the cluster membership is correctly assigned. Each of m p-values refers to the statistical test of that row with regard to its assigned cluster. Its resampling strategy accounts for the over-fitting characteristics due to direct computation of clusters from the observed data and protects against an anti-conservative bias.

Generally, it functions identical to jackstraw_kmeans, but this uses ClusterR::KMeans_rcpp instead of stats::kmeans. A speed improvement is gained by K-means++ initialization and RcppArmadillo. If the input data is still too large, consider using jackstraw_MiniBatchKmeans.

The input data (dat) must be of a class 'matrix'.

Value

jackstraw_kmeanspp returns a list consisting of

F.obs	m observed F statistics between variables and cluster centers.
F.null	F null statistics between null variables and cluster centers, from the jackstraw method.
p.F	m p-values of membership.
