Does any know the reference/link where i can find the MATLAB implementation of gap statistics for clustering as mentioned in this paper?

2The gap statistic takes 20 lines of code or less to implement. It may be faster just to write it yourself. – cardinal Jun 05 '11 at 14:45

@chi ok will not repeat the same. – Learner Jun 05 '11 at 15:14

The Statistics Toolbox implements the gap statistic as a class in the package clustering.evaluation since R2013b:
load fisheriris;
rng('default'); % For reproducibility
eva = evalclusters(meas,'kmeans','gap','KList',[1:6])
figure;
plot(eva);
You can also use this file exchange.

+1. I always have a sweet-spot for question archaeologists. On another note, R2013b seems to have really invested in the Stats toolbox functionality. I also saw a first actually usable LME implementation. – usεr11852 Nov 03 '13 at 05:25

The file linked does not produce the same graph for the same data set. It recommends two clusters, rather than 4 on R2011a. – Druckles Apr 28 '14 at 16:45

Well one of them is wrong or use some variant as the algorithm to compute the gap is supposed to be deterministic :) – Franck Dernoncourt Apr 28 '14 at 19:33
