function [y, E] = sammon(x, n, opts) %SAMMON Performs Sammon's MDS mapping on dataset X % % Y = SAMMON(X) applies Sammon's nonlinear mapping procedure on % multivariate data X, where each row represents a pattern and each column % represents a feature. On completion, Y contains the corresponding % co-ordinates of each point on the map. By default, a two-dimensional % map is created. Note if X contains any duplicated rows, SAMMON will % fail (ungracefully). % % [Y,E] = SAMMON(X) also returns the value of the cost function in E (i.e. % the stress of the mapping). % % An N-dimensional output map is generated by Y = SAMMON(X,N) . % % A set of optimisation options can also be specified using a third % argument, Y = SAMMON(X,N,OPTS) , where OPTS is a structure with fields: % % MaxIter - maximum number of iterations % TolFun - relative tolerance on objective function % MaxHalves - maximum number of step halvings % Input - {'raw','distance'} if set to 'distance', X is % interpreted as a matrix of pairwise distances. % Display - {'off', 'on', 'iter'} % Initialisation - {'pca', 'random'} % % The default options structure can be retrieved by calling SAMMON with % no parameters. % % References : % % [1] Sammon, John W.

This may not be a good choice for very large % datasets, so perhaps one day I'll get around to doing a MEX % version using the BLAS library etc. for very large datasets. % % Copyright : (c) Dr Gavin C.
