Calculate Silhouette Information of RAVs

Description

The silhouette value is a measure of how similar an object is to its own cluster (cohesion) compared to other clusters (separation). The silhouette width ranges from -1 to +1, where a high value indicates that the object is well matched to its own cluster and poorly matched to neighboring clusters.

Usage

.calculateSilhouetteWidth(dat, kmeansRes)

Arguments

dat	A matrix with all the top PCs from training data to be clustered.
kmeansRes	Output from stats::kmeans.

Value

Silhouette-class object, which is an n x 3 matrix with attributes.
