Silhouette_Dissimilarity_Plot function

Plot of silhouette widths or dissimilarities

Silhouette_Dissimilarity_Plot(evaluation_object, silhouette = TRUE)

Arguments

• evaluation_object: the output of either a Cluster_Medoids or Clara_Medoids function
• silhouette: either TRUE or FALSE, indicating whether the silhouette widths or the dissimilarities should be plotted

Returns

TRUE if either the silhouette widths or the dissimilarities are plotted successfully, otherwise FALSE

Details

This function takes the result-object of the Cluster_Medoids or Clara_Medoids function and depending on the argument silhouette it plots either the dissimilarities or the silhouette widths of the observations belonging to each cluster.

Examples

# data(soybean)

# dat = soybean[, -ncol(soybean)]

# cm = Cluster_Medoids(dat, clusters = 5, distance_metric = 'jaccard_coefficient')

# plt_sd = Silhouette_Dissimilarity_Plot(cm, silhouette = TRUE)
