Seriation using tree-penalized path length

Abstract

Given a sample of n data points and an n by n dissimilarity matrix, data seriation methods produce a linear ordering of the objects, putting similar objects nearby in the ordering. One may visualize the reordered dissimilarity matrix with a heat map and thus understand the structure of the data, while still displaying the full matrix of dissimilarities. Good orderings produce heat maps that are easy to read and allow for clear interpretation.
