* Package name : r-cran-genieclust Version : 0.9.4 Upstream Author : Marek Gagolewski, * URL : https://cran.r-project.org/package=genieclust * License : AGPL-3 Programming Lang: GNU R Description : GNU R Genie++ Hierarchical Clustering Algorithm with Noise Points Detection A retake on the Genie algorithm - a robust hierarchical clustering method (Gagolewski, Bartoszuk, Cena, 2016 <DOI:10.1016/j.ins.2016.05.003>). Now faster and more memory efficient; determining the whole hierarchy for datasets of 10M points in low dimensional Euclidean spaces or 100K points in high-dimensional ones takes only 1-2 minutes. Allows clustering with respect to mutual reachability distances so that it can act as a noise point detector or a robustified version of 'HDBSCAN*' (that is able to detect a predefined number of clusters and hence it does not dependent on the somewhat fragile 'eps' parameter). . The package also features an implementation of economic inequity indices (the Gini, Bonferroni index) and external cluster validity measures (partition similarity scores; e.g., the adjusted Rand, Fowlkes-Mallows, adjusted mutual information, pair sets index). . See also the 'Python' version of 'genieclust' available on 'PyPI', which supports sparse data, more metrics, and even larger datasets.
