In this tutorial we learn how to install r-cran-apcluster on Kali Linux. r-cran-apcluster is Affinity Propagation Clustering

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install r-cran-apcluster on Kali Linux.

What is r-cran-apcluster

r-cran-apcluster is:

Implements Affinity Propagation clustering introduced by Frey and Dueck (2007) DOI:10.1126/science.1136800. The algorithms are largely analogous to the ‘Matlab’ code published by Frey and Dueck. The package further provides leveraged affinity propagation and an algorithm for exemplar-based agglomerative clustering that can also be used to join clusters obtained from affinity propagation. Various plotting functions are available for analyzing clustering results.

There are three methods to install r-cran-apcluster on Kali Linux. We can use apt-get, apt and aptitude. In the following sections we will describe each method. You can choose one of them.
