NAME

clmmeet - compute the intersection of a set of clusterings.

SYNOPSIS

clmmeet -o <output file name> <file name>+

DESCRIPTION

clmmeet computes the intersection of a set of clusterings, that is, the largest clustering that is a subclustering of all the clusterings in the set. It stores the intersection (or meet) in the argument to the -o flag, which must be the first option given. All remaining arguments are interpreted as names of files containing clusterings in mcl format (see mcxformat), which must all pertain to a set of the same cardinality.

This utility can be useful in measuring (in conjunction with clmdist) the consistency of a set of clusterings at different levels of granularity - if the meet of all those clusterings is close to being a subclustering of each of them, consistency is good. See clmdist for an example.
