function

scipy.cluster.hierarchy._hierarchy_impl:is_isomorphic

source: build-install/usr/lib/python3.14/site-packages/scipy/cluster/hierarchy/_hierarchy_impl.py:3715

Signature

def is_isomorphic(T1, T2)

Summary

Determine if two different cluster assignments are equivalent.

Parameters

T1 : array_like

An assignment of singleton cluster ids to flat cluster ids.

T2 : array_like

An assignment of singleton cluster ids to flat cluster ids.

Returns

b : bool

Whether the flat cluster assignments T1 and T2 are equivalent.

Examples

from scipy.cluster.hierarchy import fcluster, is_isomorphic
from scipy.cluster.hierarchy import single, complete
from scipy.spatial.distance import pdist
✓
Two flat cluster assignments can be isomorphic if they represent the same cluster assignment, with different labels. For example, we can use the `scipy.cluster.hierarchy.single` method and flatten the output to four clusters:
X = [[0, 0], [0, 1], [1, 0],
     [0, 4], [0, 3], [1, 4],
     [4, 0], [3, 0], [4, 1],
     [4, 4], [3, 4], [4, 3]]
✓
Z = single(pdist(X))
T = fcluster(Z, 1, criterion='distance')
T
✓
array([3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 2, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1], dtype=int32)
We can then do the same using the `scipy.cluster.hierarchy.complete`: method:
Z = complete(pdist(X))
T_ = fcluster(Z, 1.5, criterion='distance')
T_
✓
array([1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4], dtype=int32)
As we can see, in both cases we obtain four clusters and all the data points are distributed in the same way - the only thing that changes are the flat cluster labels (3 => 1, 4 =>2, 2 =>3 and 4 =>1), so both cluster assignments are isomorphic:
is_isomorphic(T, T_)
✗
np.True_
