Find clusters of common subtrees — common_subtrees_clusters • dendextend

Gets a dend and the output from "nodes_with_shared_labels" and returns a vector (length of labels), indicating the clusters forming shared subtrees

common_subtrees_clusters(dend1, dend2, leaves_get_0_cluster = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

dend1: a dendrogram.
dend2: a dendrogram.
leaves_get_0_cluster: logical (TRUE). Should the leaves which are not part of a larger common subtree get a unique cluster number, or the value 0.
...: not used.

Value

An integer vector, with values indicating which leaves in dend1 form a common subtree cluster, with ones available in dend2
