Figure 6From: 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 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.Back to article page
