clust: Hierarchical clustering on a matrix of coefficients

Description

clust is a method for Coe objects to calculate and display hierarchical clustering of shapes based on the distance between their coefficients, after a distance matrix calculation based on dist.

Usage

clust(Coe, fac, method = "euclidean", type = "fan", palette = col.summer)

Arguments

Coe

The Coe object on which to perform hierarchical clustering.

fac

factor defining which column of the @fac slot to use for grouping, if any.

method

The distance method used by dist.

type

The plotting method used by plot.phylo.

palette

A color palette to use to plot the different groups, if any.

Value

• Returns a dist object.

Examples

data(bot)
botE <- eFourier(bot, nb.h=32)
clust(botE)
