I'm trying to perform an MDS of some data that I have. When I use cmdscale everything is fine and I get some interesting results however, the tends to be low.
What I wnat to do is compare this with the Non-Metric MDS using isoMDS or sammon. However, when I try using these I get the following message.
Error in isoMDS(x.dist) : zero or negative distance between objects 2 and 4
I am using as.dist to convert my full dissimilarity matrix.
Some of the dissimilarities, other than the diagonal, are zero which is causing this, is there anything I can do to resolve this.
Below is a sample dissimilarity matrix
0 0 0.0694153 0.187033 0.193339 0 0 0.0146605 0.36829 0.563406 0.0694153 0.0146605 0 0.347965 0.187033 0.36829 0.347965 0
Thanks
Adam
