Cluster analysis

Different results of cluster analysis on an artificial dataset (called "Mouse")

Clustering or cluster analysis is a type of data analysis. The analyst groups objects so that objects in the same group (called a cluster) are more similar to each other than to objects in other groups (clusters) in some way. This is a common task in data mining.
