clustering compound library #219

Closed barhoon closed 2 years ago

barhoon commented 2 years ago

Hi. I used Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) for clustering my compound library, but the clusters are very small and close together. I also need to have a representative for each cluster. Is there a way for me to use the K-means clustering algorithm to cluster the attachment to the desired number and get a representative combination for each cluster? How can I do that? Thank you https://usaupload.com/5fzk/cX-canvas.png

Currently, such a feature is not available in the online tool. The binning clustering option is probably the closest for what you are suggesting. If you know a bit of R, then you could use the affiliated ChemmineR package (here) for such tasks.
