determineRegroupList {LabourMarketAreas} | R Documentation |
This function determines, for each cluster in LWClus, the cluster with which that cluster is most closely associated. First the cohesion between all pairs of clusters is calculated; then the cohesion is sorted for each cluster and only the last (i.e., highest) one is selected.
determineRegroupList(LWClus, marginals)
LWClus |
data table containing the flows between the clusters. |
marginals |
data table containing the main characteristics of the cluster. |
This function determines, for each pair of cluster in LWClus, the cohesion; then it is sorted and only the last (i.e., highest) one is selected. The highest value it associated with the dominant cluster for the dissolved cluster.
Integer: the candidate cluster identifier.
This function is called and used internally by the main function findClusters.
