This wrapper prepares the data into a distance matrix to send to
stats::hclust and retains the parameters num_clusters or h as an
attribute.
Usage
.hier_clust_fit_stats(
x,
num_clusters = NULL,
cut_height = NULL,
linkage_method = NULL,
dist_fun = philentropy::distance
)Arguments
- x
matrix or data frame
- num_clusters
the number of clusters
- cut_height
the height to cut the dendrogram
- linkage_method
the agglomeration method to be used. This should be (an unambiguous abbreviation of) one of
