hierarchical-clustering-plot

separate

Use when building a sample-level hierarchical clustering dendrogram from a bulk expression matrix and sample annotation table, especially for QC, batch inspection, or sample similarity assessment. Trigger keywords: hierarchical clustering, dendrogram, sample QC, batch inspection, sample similarity. NOT for: differential expression testing, gene clustering heatmaps, single-cell clustering workflows.

When to use

• Good fits: sample QC, batch inspection, sample similarity assessment, checking whether annotated sample groups cluster as expected.
• Trigger keywords: hierarchical clustering, dendrogram, sample QC, batch inspection, sample similarity.
• Not for: differential expression testing, gene clustering heatmaps, single-cell clustering workflows.

When not to use

• differential expression testing
• gene clustering heatmaps
• single-cell clustering workflows
