Figure 6

An example of number of cluster prediction with the use of Consensus. The experiment is derived from the CNS Rat dataset, with use of the K-means-R clustering algorithm. The plots of the CDF curves is shown in (a), yielding a monotonically increasing value of A as a function of k. The plot of the Δ' curve is shown in (b), where the flattening effect corresponding to k* is evident for k ≥ k* = 6.
