Description

In GSgalgoR, the partition around medioids (PAM) algorithm is the default clustering process used under the evolutionary process.

Usage

1

Arguments

c

a dissimilarity matrix object of type 'dist'

k

positive integer specifying the number of clusters, less than the number of observations

Details

The function runs the pam function of the 'cluster' package with options cluster.only =TRUE, diss = TRUE, do.swap=TRUE, keep.diss=FALSE, keep.data = FALSE, pamonce= 2

Value

Returns a 'list' with the value '$cluster' which contains the cluster assignment of each of the samples evaluated
