Description Usage Arguments Value References Examples

Integartion and acontamination are measures of the quality of a clustering with a reference to a true partition. Let X = (x_1, … x_p) be the data set, A be a partition into clusters A_1, … A_n (true partition) and B be a partition into clusters B_1, …, B_m. Then for cluster A_j integration is eqaul to:

Int(A_j) = \frac{max_{k = 1, …, m} \# \{ i \in \{ 1, … p \}: x_i \in A_j \wedge x_i \in B_k \} }{\# A_j}

The B_k for which the value is maximized is called the integrating cluster of A_j. Then the integration for the whole clustering equals is Int(A,B) = \frac{1}{n} ∑_{j=1}^n Int(A_j) .The acontamination is defined by:

Acont(A_j) = \frac{ \# \{ i \in \{ 1, … p \}: x_i \in A_j \wedge x_i \in B_k \} }{\# B_k}

where B_k is the integrating cluster for A_j. Then the acontamination for the whole dataset is Acont(A,B) = \frac{1}{n} ∑_{j=1}^n Acont(A_j)

1	integration(group, true_group)

`group`	A vector, first partition.
`true_group`	A vector, second (reference) partition.
