.calculateSilhouetteWidth {GenomicSuperSignature} | R Documentation

## Calculate Silhouette Information of RAVs

### Description

The silhouette value is a measure of how similar an object is to its own cluster (cohesion) compared to other clusters (separation). The silhouette width ranges from -1 to +1, where a high value indicates that the object is well matched to its own cluster and poorly matched to neighboring clusters.

### Usage

    .calculateSilhouetteWidth(dat, kmeansRes)

### Arguments

`dat` | A matrix with all the top PCs from training data to be clustered.
`kmeansRes` | Output from `stats::kmeans`.

### Value

Silhouette-class object, which is an n x 3 matrix with attributes.
