Wrapper around metaMDS and Rtsne for dimensionality reduction with certain set parameters.

Usage

getFit(d, dim = 2, technique, perp = 30, seed = 8541)

Arguments

d

distance matrix as a matrix

dim

number of dimensions, by default 2. As argument k for metaMDS and dims for Rtsne

technique

either "mds" to run metaMDS, "tsne" to run Rtsne or "umap" to run umap

perp

perplexity value for Rtsne, default is 30. This value is ignored when metaMDS is run.

seed

seed to keep randomness at check

Value

output of either metaMDS or Rtsne.

Details

metaMDS is run with trymax=20 and trace=FALSE by default, so that the search for best solution is not printed. Rtsne uses as default parameters theta=0.0, check.duplicates = FALSE, max_iter = 1000.
