Overview

About

Maintained by Yifan (Ethan) Xu3 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

An implementation of ADPclust clustering procedures (Fast Clustering Using Adaptive Density Peak Detection). The work is built and improved upon the idea of Rodriguez and Laio (2014)DOI:10.1126/science.1242072. ADPclust clusters data by finding density peaks in a density-distance plot generated from local multivariate Gaussian density estimation. It includes an automatic centroids selection and parameter optimization algorithm, which finds the number of clusters and cluster centroids by comparing average silhouettes on a grid of testing clustering results; It also includes a user interactive algorithm that allows the user to manually selects cluster centroids from a two dimensional "density-distance plot". Here is the research article associated with this package: "Wang, Xiao-Feng, and Yifan Xu (2015)DOI:10.1177/0962280215609948 Fast clustering using adaptive density peak detection." Statistical methods in medical research". url: http://smm.sagepub.com/content/early/2015/10/15/0962280215609948.abstract.

Install

R (source archive)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)openSUSE (OBS)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/ADPclust/ADPclust_0.7.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "ADPclust_0.7.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.7) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("ethanyxu/ADPclust")

Development version from ethanyxu/ADPclust. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-adpclust

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-ADPclust

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
