Cluster 3.0 20190830 – Enhanced Version of Cluster

Cluster 3.0 20190830

:: DESCRIPTION

Cluster 3.0 is an enhanced version of Cluster, which was originally developed by Michael Eisen while at Stanford University.

Cluster is program that provide a computational and graphical environment for analyzing data from DNA microarray experiments, or other genomic datasets. The program Cluster can organize and analyze the data in a number of different ways.

The main improvement consists of the k-means algorithm, which now includes multiple trials to find the best clustering solution. This is crucial for the k-means algorithm to be reliable.The routine for self-organizing maps was extended to include 2D rectangular geometries. The Euclidean distance and the city-block distance were added to the available measures of similarity.
