Thanks, David.
Sorry, maybe my questions were too fuzzy.
They concern the definition of cluster in these codes.
1) When we estimate through single linkage whether the structure belongs to the
cluster we should find the smallest distance between any element of the
structure and any element of cluster, then compare this distance with the
cutoff value. I don't understand how this cutoff value may have "root mean
square deviation" feature.
2) To my knowledge the g_clustsize uses the same "single linkage" algorithm for
cluster construction. If so, there should be the similar cut-off parameter. The
-cut option looks like this one. But very different default values of these
parameters (cutoff=0.1 in g_cluster and cut=0.35 in g_clustsize) are doubted to
me.
These two questions may be reformulated to single one:
If I would apply these two codes (using single linkage with default values) to
the same system how different would be the cluster partitions?
Thanks one more.
