Figure 5From: Computational cluster validation for microarray data analysis: experimental assessment of Clest, Consensus Clustering, Figure of Merit, Gap Statistics and Model ExplorerAn example of number of cluster prediction with the use of ME. Consider the computation of the ME algorithm on the dataset of Fig. 2(a). The histograms plotting the SIM values distribution for increasing values of k are shown above. The transition allowing for the prediction of k* takes place at k = 2 for a correct prediction of k* = 2.Back to article page
