Dear R users,
Is there a way to apply a “stopping
rule” in hierarchical Clustering? I have a data and I want to find the optimal
number of clusters while doing hierarchical clustering. I would be deeply
obliged
if someone, whoever applied stopping rule, could send me the scripts. thanks in
advance
There are hundreds of such rules to find a proper number of clusters for
a given data situation. We do not know which one fits to your data,
hence you will have to start reading some books and papers on the topic.
A good keyword to start is probably "cluster index".
Best,
Uwe Ligges
