\description{
|
|
Create hierarchical cluster tree.
|
|
}
|
|
\details{
|
|
Z = LINKAGE(Y) creates a hierarchical cluster tree, using the single
|
|
linkage algorithm. The input Y is a distance matrix such as is generated by
|
|
PDIST. Y may also be a more general dissimilarity matrix conforming to the
|
|
output format of PDIST.
|
|
|
|
Z = linkage(X) returns a matrix Z that encodes a tree containing hierarchical clusters of the rows of the input data matrix X.

\note{
|
|
This is also a base MATLAB function. The reason why the BAPS
|
|
source code also contains a LINKAGE function is unclear. One could speculate
|
|
that BAPS should use this function instead of the base one, so this is why
|
|
this function is part of this package (instead of a MATLAB-replicating
|
|
package such as matlab2r)
