Hello everybody,
I am trying to use SOM package to cluster some gene expression data and
there fore requesting you some help. I would really appreciate if you cold
help me out.
Q1. I clustered the data using SOM function and plotted it using plot
function. But I can't figure out how I can list the data elements belongs to
different cluster. I made a 5X5 SOM grid and there are 25 clusters. The plot
tells me how many data elements belongs to this different cluster grid but I
want to make separate list of them. I don't know how to deal with the
SOM.object frankly speaking.
Q2. The SOM package listed 5 functions
som.init
som
som.train
som.update and
som.project
I was wondering to get the best result in what order I should apply them?
Should I first initialize the som using som.init, then train it with
som.train and finally update it with som.update? Or just use som function
followed by som.update? As I have only one set of data I don't think I need
to use project function.
Thanks in advance and regards.
