Syntax

[c,center] = calcCluster(ori,'halfwidth',2.5*degree)
[c,center] = calcCluster(ori,'numCluster',n,'method','hierarchical')
[c,center] = calcCluster(ori,'maxAngle',omega,'method','hierarchical')

Input

`ori`	`orientation`
`n`	`number of clusters`
`omega`	`maximum angle`

Output

`c`	`list of clusters`
`center`	`center of the clusters`

Example

generate orientation clustered around 5 centers

cs = crystalSymmetry('432');
center = orientation.rand(5,cs);
odf = unimodalODF(center,'halfwidth',5*degree)
ori = odf.discreteSample(1500);

odf = SO3FunRBF (432 → y↓→x)

find the clusters and its centers

[cId,centerRec] = calcCluster(ori,'silent');

visualize result

for i = 1:length(centerRec)
plot(ori(cId==i),'axisAngle')
hold on
plot(centerRec(i),'MarkerFaceColor','k','MarkerSize',15)
end
hold off

%check the accuracy of the recomputed centers
