All observation are represented by points in the plot, using principal components or multidimensional scaling. Around each cluster an ellipse is drawn. </p> <h3>Usage</h3> <pre> ## Default S3 method: clusplot(x, clus, diss = FALSE, s.x.2d = mkCheckX(x, diss), stand = FALSE, lines = 2, shade = FALSE, color = FALSE, labels= 0, plotchar = TRUE, col.p = "dark green", col.txt = col.p, col.clus = if(color) c(2, 4, 6, 3) else 5, cex = 1, cex.txt = cex, span = TRUE, add = FALSE, xlim = NULL, ylim = NULL, main = paste("CLUSPLOT(", deparse(substitute(x)),")"), sub = paste("These two components explain", round(100 * var.dec, digits = 2), "% of the point variability."), xlab = "Component 1", ylab = "Component 2", verbose = getOption("verbose"), ...) </pre> <h3>Arguments</h3> <table summary="R argblock"> <tr valign="top"><td><code>x</code></td> <td> <p>matrix or data frame, or dissimilarity matrix, depending on the value of the <code>diss</code> argument. </p> <p>In case of a matrix (alike), each row corresponds to an observation, and each column corresponds to a variable. All variables must be numeric. Missing values (<code><a href="../../base/html/NA.html">NA</a></code>s) are allowed. They are replaced by the median of the corresponding variable. When some variables or some observations contain only missing values, the function stops with a warning message. </p> <p>In case of a dissimilarity matrix, <code>x</code> is the output of <code><a href="daisy.html">daisy</a></code> or <code><a href="../../stats/html/dist.html">dist</a></code> or a symmetric matrix. Also, a vector of length <i>n*(n-1)/2</i> is allowed (where <i>n</i> is the number of observations), and will be interpreted in the same way as the output of the above-mentioned functions. Missing values (NAs) are not allowed. </p> </td></tr> <tr valign="top"><td><code>clus</code></td> <td> <p>a vector of length n representing a clustering of <code>x</code>. For each observation the vector lists the number or name of the cluster to which it has been assigned. <code>clus</code> is often the clustering component of the output of <code><a href="pam.html">pam</a></code>, <code><a href="fanny.html">fanny</a></code> or <code><a href="clara.html">clara</a></code>.</p> </td></tr> <tr valign="top"><td><code>diss</code></td> <td> <p>logical indicating if <code>x</code> will be considered as a dissimilarity matrix or a matrix of observations by variables (see <code>x</code> arugment above).</p> </td></tr> <tr valign="top"><td><code>s.x.2d</code></td> <td> <p>a <code><a href="../../base/html/list.html">list</a></code> with components named <code>x</code> (a <i>n x 2</i> matrix; typically something like principal components of original data), <code>labs</code> and <code>var.dec</code>.</p> </td></tr></table> <table summary="R argblock"> <tr valign="top"><td><code>stand</code></td> <td> <p>logical flag: if true, then the representations of the n observations in the 2-dimensional plot are standardized. </p> </td></tr> <tr valign="top"><td><code>lines</code></td> <td> <p>integer out of <code>0, 1, 2</code>, used to obtain an idea of the distances between ellipses. The distance between two ellipses E1 and E2 is measured along the line connecting the centers <i>m1</i> and <i>m2</i> of the two ellipses. </p> <p>In case E1 and E2 overlap on the line through <i>m1</i> and <i>m2</i>, no line is drawn. Otherwise, the result depends on the value of <code>lines</code>: If </p> <dl> <dt>lines = 0,</dt><dd><p>no distance lines will appear on the plot;</p> </dd> <dt>lines = 1,</dt><dd><p>the line segment between <i>m1</i> and <i>m2</i> is drawn;</p> </dd> <dt>lines = 2,</dt><dd><p>a line segment between the boundaries of E1 and E2 is drawn (along the line connecting <i>m1</i> and <i>m2</i>).</p> </dd> </dl> </td></tr> <tr valign="top"><td><code>shade</code></td> <td> <p>logical flag: if TRUE, then the ellipses are shaded in relation to their density. The density is the number of points in the cluster divided by the area of the ellipse. </p> </td></tr> <tr valign="top"><td><code>color</code></td> <td> <p>logical flag: if TRUE, then the ellipses are colored with respect to their density. With increasing density, the colors are light blue, light green, red and purple.

(This is a special case of the minimum volume ellipsoid.)<br /> If FALSE, the ellipse is based on the mean and covariance matrix of the same points. While this is faster to compute, it often yields a much larger ellipse. </p> <p>There are also some special cases: When a cluster consists of only one point, a tiny circle is drawn around it. When the points of a cluster fall on a straight line, <code>span=FALSE</code> draws a narrow ellipse around it and <code>span=TRUE</code> gives the exact line segment. </p> </td></tr> <tr valign="top"><td><code>add</code></td> <td> <p>logical indicating if ellipses (and labels if <code>labels</code> is true) should be <em>added</em> to an already existing plot.

These functions are data reduction techniques to represent the data in a bivariate plot. </p> <p>Ellipses are then drawn to indicate the clusters. The further layout of the plot is determined by the optional arguments. </p> <h3>Value</h3> <p>An invisible list with components: </p> <table summary="R valueblock"> <tr valign="top"><td><code>Distances</code></td> <td> <p>When <code>lines</code> is 1 or 2 we optain a k by k matrix (k is the number of clusters).

Let y be a vector where element i is the ratio between the number of points in cluster i and the area of ellipse i. When the cluster i is a line segment, y[i] and the density of the cluster are set to <code>NA</code>. Let z be the sum of all the elements of y without the NAs. Then we put shading = y/z *37 + 3 . </p> </td></tr> </table> <h3>Side Effects</h3> <p>a visual display of the clustering is plotted on the current graphics device. </p> <h3>Note</h3> <p>When we have 4 or fewer clusters, then the <code>color=TRUE</code> gives every cluster a different color. When there are more than 4 clusters, clusplot uses the function <code><a href="pam.html">pam</a></code> to cluster the densities into 4 groups such that ellipses with nearly the same density get the same color. <code>col.clus</code> specifies the colors used. </p> <p>The <code>col.p</code> and <code>col.txt</code> arguments, added for <span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier; color: #666666;"><b>R</b></span>, are recycled to have length the number of observations. If <code>col.p</code> has more than one value, using <code>color = TRUE</code> can be confusing because of a mix of point and ellipse colors. </p> <h3>References</h3> <p>Pison, G., Struyf, A. and Rousseeuw, P.J.
