| contents | As single-cell gene expression data analysis continues to grow, the need for reliable clustering methods has become increasingly important. The prevalence of heuristic means for method choice could lead to inaccurate reports if comprehensive evaluation of the methods is omitted. Typical comparisons of methods fail to address the complexity presented by the data, transformations, or internal parameters. Previous work in the field of microarray data provided measures to evaluate the stability characteristic of clustering algorithms. Additional work on aggregation in the same era presented a way to compare multiple methodologies using several performance measures. In this paper, we provide adaptations to these measures and employ two aggregation schemes to create ranked lists of method and parameter choices for six unique datasets. Our findings demonstrate that an ensemble of validation measures, combined with ranking based on measures' dataset specific preferences, provides an objective way to select clustering methodologies, taking into account characteristic evaluation from each measure. |
