Tomáš Sieger: Measures of quality of clusters in
hierarchical clustering of flow cytometry data
Hierarchical clustering enables unsupervised analysis of
multidimensional data, yielding a dendrogram, a hierarchical tree of
clusters of data samples. However, the dendrogram does not readily
specify the quality of individual clusters in it. In the lecture, we
will show measures of quality of clusters in hierarchical
clustering, developed in our group, that can be used to guide
selection of meaningful clusters in flow cytometry data. The new
unsupervised method enables automated processing of large amounts of
data without a need of costly and subjective manual intervention. In
future, we need to study the general applicability of our measures
of cluster quality and validate them on other data sets.
