hcaScores: HCA on PCA scores from a Spectra Object

Description

A wrapper which performs HCA on the scores from a PCA of a Spectra object, color-coding the results as specified in the object. Many methods for computing the clusters and distances are available.

Usage

hcaScores(spectra, pca, scores = c(1:5), c.method = "complete",
  d.method = "euclidean", use.sym = FALSE, leg.loc = "topright", ...)

Arguments

spectra

An object of S3 class Spectra.

pca

An object of class prcomp, modified to include a list element called $method, a character string describing the pre-processing carried out and the type of PCA performed (it appears on the plot). This is automatically provided if ChemoSpec functions c_pcaSpectra or r_pcaSpectra were used to create pca.

scores

A vector of integers specifying which scores to use for the HCA.

c.method

A character string describing the clustering method; must be acceptable to hclust.

d.method

A character string describing the distance calculation method; must be acceptable as a method in rowDist.

use.sym

A logical; if true, use no color and use lower-case letters to indicate group membership.

leg.loc

Character; if "none" no legend will be drawn. Otherwise, any string acceptable to legend.

…

Additional parameters to be passed to the plotting functions.

Value

A list, containing an object of class hclust and an object of class dendrogram. The side effect is a plot.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
data(SrE.IR)
pca <- c_pcaSpectra(SrE.IR, choice = "noscale")
myt <- expression(bolditalic(Serenoa)~bolditalic(repens)~bold(IR~Spectra))
res <- hcaScores(SrE.IR,  pca, scores = c(1:5), main = myt)
