Re: [R] Ward's Clustering Doubts

Hi Rodrigo, [apropos of Ward's method] >> ... we saw something like "You must use it with Euclidean Distance..." Strictly speaking this is probably correct, as Ward's method does an analysis of variance type of decomposition and so doesn't really make much sense (I think) unless Euclidean dist

[R] Ward's Clustering Doubts

Hi Everybody, Now I have a doubt that is more statistical than R's technical. I’m working with ecology of recent Foraminifera. At the lab we used to perform cluster analysis using 1-Pearson’s R and Wards method (we already saw it in bibliography of the area) which renders good results with our
