To choose the number of clusters used by MCCA and LRACluster, we mistakenly took the solution with minimal silhouette score, rather than maximal.

Clustering with the maximal silhouette reduced the performance of both methods. We report here the results of the runs with maximal silhouette score.


-log10 log-rank p-value

MCCA has significant difference in survival in 4 of the 10 datasets. LRACluster has significant difference in survival in 4 of the 10 datasets.
