391: A Monte Carlo Comparison of Six Clustering Procedures

Kuiper, F. Kent, Fisher, Lloyd·1975·Biometrics

Abstract

The performance of six hierarchical clustering methods (given by one algorithm, Wishart [1969j) are compared on bivariate and multivariate normal Monte Carlo samples. The methods are stopped with the correct number of clusters and compared with respect to correct classification (placing pairs of points in the same or different clusters correctly or incorrectly) and with each other (both methods agree or disagree in placing a pair of points in the same or differing clusters).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
