Convert dendrogram Objects to Class hclust

Source: R/dendextend.R

Convert dendrogram Objects to Class hclust while preserving the call/method/dist.method values of the original hclust object (hc)

as_hclust_fixed(x, hc, ...)

Arguments

x

any object which has an as.hclust method. (mostly used for dendrogram)

hc

an old hclust object from which to re-use the call/method/dist.method values

...

passed to as.hclust

Value

An hclust object (from a dendrogram) with the original hclust call/method/dist.method values

See also

as.hclust

Examples

hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests[1:3, ]), "ave")
dend <- as.dendrogram(hc)

as.hclust(dend)
#> 
#> Call:
#> as.hclust.dendrogram(x = dend)
#> 
#> Cluster method   : NA 
#> Distance         : NA 
#> Number of objects: 3 
#> 
as_hclust_fixed(dend, hc)
#> 
#> Call:
#> hclust(d = dist(USArrests[1:3, ]), method = "ave")
#> 
#> Cluster method   : average 
#> Distance         : euclidean 
#> Number of objects: 3
