Hierarchical cluster analysis using several methods such as
ward.D", "ward.D2", "single", "complete", "average" (= UPGMA), "mcquitty" (= WPGMA),
"median" (= WPGMC) or "centroid" (= UPGMC).
is a dataframe or numeric matrix, each row represents a gene,
each column represents a sample come from TCGAPrepare.
method
is method to be used for generic cluster such as 'hclust' or 'consensus'
methodHC
is method to be used for Hierarchical cluster.
Value
object of class hclust if method selected is 'hclust'.
If method selected is 'Consensus' returns a list of length maxK
(maximum cluster number to evaluate.). Each element is a list containing
consensusMatrix (numerical matrix), consensusTree (hclust), consensusClass
(consensus class asssignments). ConsensusClusterPlus also produces images.
