A diagonal measure and a local distance matrix to display relations between objects and variables A diagonal measure and a local distance matrix to display relations between objects and variables  [registered users only]
The authors introduce two concepts to develop a method, where a proper change of rows and columns of a data matrix yields patterns of significant new information. By using their diagonal matrix measure and local distance matrix the similar objects were arranged close to each other in the data matrix and simultaneously the variables responsible for their similarity were collected close to the diagonal part defined by these objects.

One to rule them all One to rule them all 
The rules that dictate the three-dimensional shapes of RNA molecules are primarily based not on complex chemical interactions but simply on geometry, according to a new biophysical study. The findings circumvents the fact that NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography are not always effective tools in the analysis of complex biomolecules with potentially myriad conformations.

PLS-trees, a top-down clustering approach PLS-trees, a top-down clustering approach  [registered users only]
This paper introduces a top-down hierarchical clustering approach called PLS-Tree. The PLS-Tree uses the scores of PLS regression models as the basis for splitting clusters. The approach is illustrated using two QSAR examples and one dataset based on hyperspectral images of liver tissue. [December 16, 2009]
