Description

Counts matches between two hierarchical clusterings

Arguments

hc1

First hclust object

hc2

Second hclust object

aa.d1 <- hclust(dist(t(atmospheres)))
aa.d2 <- hclust(as.dist(1 - abs(cor(atmospheres, method="spearman"))),
 method="ward.D")
aa12.match <- Hclust.match(aa.d1, aa.d2)
heatmap(aa12.match, scale="none")
