predict.orclus: Arbitrarily ORiented projected CLUSter generation

Description

Assigns clusters and distances to cluster centers in the corresponding subspaces for new data according to a subspace clustering model of class orclus.

Usage

# S3 method for orclus
predict(object, newdata, ...)

Arguments

object

Model resulting from a call of orclus.

newdata

A matrix or data frame to be clustered by the given model.

…

Currently not used.

Value

distances

A matrix where coloumns are the distances to all cluster centers in the corresponding subspaces for the new data.

cluster

The resulting cluster labels for the new data.
