Overview

geWorkbench implements its own code for agglomerative hierarchical clustering.


Note - hierarchical clustering is memory intensive. With the default memory settings (see here to change), clustering more than about 2000 markers is not recommended.


Parameters

Clustering Method

Single Linkage

Average Linkage

Total Linkage

Clustering Dimension

Marker

Microarray

Both

Clustering Metric

Euclidean

Pearson's

Spearman's

All Arrays

All Markers

Example

Running the calculation

This example will take off with the set of markers produced in the ANOVA example. Please follow the steps for that example to produce the starting marker set, or just create/select another set of markers of your own.

1. If following the ANOVA example, activate the set of markers labeled "Significant Genes [1786]" ( which contains 1786 markers).

2. Set the parameters as shown in the following figure.

  • Clustering methods: Average Linkage.
  • Clustering Dimension: Marker.
  • Clustering Metric: Euclidean.

3. Click Analyze.

4. A progress bar will be visible during the calculation.

The results are placed in the Project Folders component and labeled "Hierarchical Clustering", and can be displayed in the Dendrogram component.


Displaying results in the Dendrogram component

Hierarchical clustering results are displayed in the Dendrogram component. The four horizontal bars shown in the diagram below were added just to show the boundaries of the four activated array sets.

The Dendrogram component allows one to select and work with just a portion of the displayed tree. To activate this feature, check the
