withinmetrics: Within-Method Metrics
In laderast/Consense: Consense: a package for evaluating multiple clusterings

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) See Also

Framework for calculating the within-method metrics for a list of methods.

1	withinmetrics(clusterlist, data)

`clusterlist`	a list of lists which contains clusterings and parameters as supplied by clusterList().
`data`	A matrix of expression values.

Given a list of parameters and clusterings as supplied by clusterList, calculates and returns a matrix with all of the relevant within-method clustering metrics.

Currently, withinresult calculates number of clusters, homogeneity, separation and average silhouette width. Note that this average silhouette width is correlation-based. See silhouette() in the cluster package for more information.

withinresult

a matrix whose columns correspond to the metrics calculated and whose rows correspond to the methods these methods were calculated on.
