optimalSlope {anocva} | R Documentation |
Estimates the optimal number of clusters using the Slope criterion when silhouette statistics already exists. The optimal number of clusters will be verified in the range 2,..., maxClust.
optimalSlope(silStats, p = 1, maxClust)
silStats |
Silhouette statistics. |
p |
Slope adjust parameter. |
maxClust |
The max number of clusters to be tried. |
The optimal number of clusters.
