Hello all,
I wish to create a "subtree" from an hclust object.
For example, let's say I have the following object:
a <- list() # initialize empty object
a$merge <- matrix(c(-1, -2,
-3, -4,
1, 2,
-5,-6,
3,4), nc=2, byrow=TRUE )
a$height <- c(1, 1.5, 3,4,4.5) # define merge heights
a$order <- 1:6 # order of leaves(trivial if hand-entered)
a$labels <- 1:6# LETTERS[1:4] # labels of leaves
class(a) <- "hclust" # make it an hclust object
plot(a) # look at the result
Now I wish the extract from it the following subtree:
a <- list() # initialize empty object
a$merge <- matrix(c(-1, -2,
-3, -4,
1, 2
), nc=2, byrow=TRUE )
a$height <- c(1, 1.5, 3) # define merge heights
a$order <- 1:4 # order of leaves(trivial if hand-entered)
a$labels <- 1:4# LETTERS[1:4] # labels of leaves
class(a) <- "hclust" # make it an hclust object
plot(a) # look at the result
How could I access it?
(I know that cutree could get me the objects of the sub tree, but not create an actual hclust object)
Thanks for any help,
Tal
