PWSC: a novel clustering method based on polynomial weight-adjusted sparse clustering for sparse biomedical data and its application in cancer subtyping

Abstract Background Clustering analysis is widely used to interpret biomedical data and uncover new knowledge and patterns. However, conventional clustering methods are not effective when dealing with sparse biomedical data. To overcome this limitation, we propose a hierarchical clustering method ca...
