It depends on how your clustered objects are stored. As written here: http://www.statmethods.net/advstats/cluster.html The function *cluster.stats() *in the *fpchttp://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/fpc/index.html * package provides a mechanism for comparing the similarity of two cluster

I can't see how to vectorized your code, maybe it's possible. That leaves you with either using parallel processing (for example using the foreach package) Or, If you know C, you could put that calculation into a C code inside the R code using Rcpp. There was a recent video on the topic on a

Hi, In general, the way to speed up for loops in R is to avoid them. It looks like some of the operations could be vectorized (e.g., h[1,k] + vv[j-1,k+1] looks like you could just add entire columns at once). If you provide sample data for all the variables in your loop, it will be possible to

Hi: If your objective is to make 15 plots, one for each level of razred, then you don't need to make 15 individual data frames first. The lattice and ggplot2 packages allow conditioning plots. You haven't mentioned what types of plots you're interested in getting, but if it's something simple
