Hierarchical clustering analysis and statistical comparisons were included in this step.

Hierarchical clustering is one method for finding community structures in a network.

For this reason, their use in hierarchical clustering techniques is far from optimal.

There are many possible weights for use in hierarchical clustering algorithms.

In Figure 2, we have applied hierarchical clustering to the genes and samples separately.

Hierarchical clustering has the distinct advantage that any valid measure of distance can be used.

Figure 4shows the results of a hierarchical clustering applied to the three column-average genes.

Using these 380 genes, a hierarchical clustering produced two groups of patients which were (just) statistically different in survival.

As a comparison, we also applied the hierarchical clustering method to cluster these genes.

For display in the figures, the final list of centroids was ordered by hierarchical clustering.

Hierarchical clustering is a statistical method for finding relatively homogeneous clusters.

Genes were grouped using the average linkage hierarchical clustering algorithm.

This is mostly achieved by unsupervised hierarchical clustering methods.

Some examples of missing capabilities include automatically creating new representations on its own, such as through hierarchical clustering.

Davis introduced hierarchical clustering to account for asymmetric relations.

Consider two hierarchical clusterings of objects labeled and .

At still higher levels there is a transition to a hierarchical clustering model in which a hierarchy of collapsing structures exist.

Determines gene expression levels based on hierarchical clustering.

Fowlkes-Mallows index can also be defined based on the number of points that are common or uncommon in the two hierarchical clusterings.

The nearest neighbor method for calculating distances between clusters in hierarchical clustering.

When using hierarchical clustering to classify gene expression profiles, there are several drawbacks to consider.

Patterns of term occurrence appear once gene names have been rearranged by hierarchical clustering (Figure 6).

Some of the genes are close together in the hierarchical clustering order (indicated by the first number in Table 2), many are not.

We use the most general model (unconstrained) for hierarchical clustering, which allows each cluster to have different volume, orientation and shape.

This measure of similarity could be either between two hierarchical clusterings or a clustering and a benchmark classification.
