Hello all, I wish to compare two dendrograms (representing Hierarchical Clusterings).
My problems are several: 1) how do I manually create a dendrogram object ? That is, how can I reconstruct it as an "hclust" object that creates such a dendrogram, when all I have is the dendrogram image (but don't have the underlaying distance matrix that produced it) ? I see that there is a function called "as.dendrogram" But I wasn't able to find an example on how to use it. 2) Assuming that I have to hclust (or dendrogram ) objects, how can I compare them ? After some searching and asking, I found this article: http://www.jstor.org/pss/2288117 And a few others that cite it, that gives ideas on how to do this. But I wasn't able to come a cross a R implementation of it. Is there ?
