Given \(N\) observations \(X_1, X_2, \ldots, X_N \in \mathcal{M}\), perform k-medoids clustering using pairwise distances.

Usage

riem.kmedoids(riemobj, k = 2, geometry = c("intrinsic", "extrinsic"))

Arguments

riemobj

a S3 "riemdata" class for \(N\) manifold-valued data.

k

the number of clusters.

geometry

(case-insensitive) name of geometry; either geodesic ("intrinsic") or embedded ("extrinsic") geometry.

Value

a named list containing

medoids

a length-\(k\) vector of medoids' indices.

cluster

a length-\(N\) vector of class labels (from \(1:k\)).

## GENERATE DATA
mydata = list()
for (i in 1:10){
  tgt = c(1, stats::rnorm(2, sd=0.1))
  mydata[[i]] = tgt/sqrt(sum(tgt^2))
}
for (i in 11:20){
  tgt = c(rnorm(1,sd=0.1),1,rnorm(1,sd=0.1))
  mydata[[i]] = tgt/sqrt(sum(tgt^2))
}
for (i in 21:30){
  tgt = c(stats::rnorm(2, sd=0.1), 1)
  mydata[[i]] = tgt/sqrt(sum(tgt^2))
}
myriem = wrap.sphere(mydata)
mylabs = rep(c(1,2,3), each=10)

## K-MEDOIDS WITH K=2,3,4
clust2 = riem.kmedoids(myriem, k=2)
clust3 = riem.kmedoids(myriem, k=3)
clust4 = riem.kmedoids(myriem, k=4)

## MDS FOR VISUALIZATION
mds2d = riem.mds(myriem, ndim=2)$embed

## VISUALIZE
opar <- par(no.readonly=TRUE)
par(mfrow=c(2,2), pty="s")
plot(mds2d, pch=19, main="true label", col=mylabs)
plot(mds2d, pch=19, main="K=2", col=clust2$cluster)
