Dear Users of ConsensusClusterPlus,
ConsensusClusterPlus has been updated to version 1.12.
Summary of updates:
For large datasets, the input data (d) was modified to also accept a
distance matrix which reduces computation time, and plotBMP was added a
plot type so that large consensus matrices can be plotted. Internal data
structures were modified to increase speed. Distance metric options
expanded ("maximum", "manhattan", "canberra", "binary","minkowski" from
dist) and custom distance function option added. Partitioning Around
Mediods clustering (from cluster package) was added as a clustering
algorithm. Kmeans invocation ("km") was changed to run on a data matrix
input by default. "kmdist" performs kmeans clustering on a distance
matrix calculated from the resampled data. In versions prior to
1.11.1, the "km" option refers to kmdist. Users wishing to use this
kmeans invocation in versions 1.11.1 or later should use option kmdist.
Upgrading to the latest version is recommended.
Thank you,
Matt Wilkerson
