+A clustergram is a combination heatmap-dendrogram that is commonly used in gene expression data. The hierarchical clustering that is represented by the dendrograms can be used to identify groups of genes with related expression levels. The Dash Bio Clustergram component is a Python-based component that uses plotly.py to generate a figure. It takes as input a two-dimensional numpy array of floating-point values. Imputation of missing data and computation of hierarchical clustering both occur within the component itself. Clusters that meet or exceed a user-defined threshold of similarity comprise single traces in the corresponding dendrogram, and can be highlighted with annotations. The user can specify additional parameters to customize the metrics and methods used to compute parts of the clustering, such as the pairwise distance between observations and the linkage matrix.
