Dear all,
I would like to perform a principal coordinates (not components) analysis,
using as similarity matrix the RMSD pairwise distances.
Is there any procedure I could use within Amber software?
I know that the clusters analysis produces the above RMSD distances
matrix in a file called PairwiseDistances, but it is not in ascii format.
If there is no procedure to accomplish the principal coordinates analysis
I might diagonalize this matrix to find eigenvectors/eigenvalues and then
project the configurations onto the space of the first two eigenvectors.
But, in this case, I need to know the format of this PairwiseDistances
file in order
to use it as a input.
Any hint would be truly appreciated.
Best regards,
MP
