To use these functions, you will need to have the `clv` package installed. ```{r eval = FALSE} # load package library(metasnf) # generate data_list dl <- data_list( list(cort_t, "cort_t", "neuroimaging", "continuous"), list(cort_sa, "cort_sa", "neuroimaging", "continuous"), list(subc_v, "subc_v", "neuroimaging", "continuous"), list(income, "income", "demographics", "continuous"), list(pubertal, "pubertal", "demographics", "continuous"), uid = "unique_id" ) # build SNF config set.seed(42) sc <- snf_config( dl = dl, n_solutions = 15 ) # collect similarity matrices and solutions data frame from batch_snf sol_df <- batch_snf( dl = dl, sc, return_sim_mats = TRUE ) # calculate Davies-Bouldin indices davies_bouldin_indices <- calculate_db_indices(sol_df) # calculate Dunn indices dunn_indices <- calculate_dunn_indices(sol_df) # calculate silhouette scores silhouette_scores <- calculate_silhouettes(sol_df) # plot the silhouette scores of the first solutions plot(silhouette_scores[[1]]) ```
