This paper is dedicated to the metrological aspects of clustering procedure. It is shown that taking into account the information on uncertainty of the data to be clustered allows easily making reasonable decisions that are metrologically supported. The paper presents that the problems that are usually difficult to solve in practice of the clustering become simpler: the proposed approach allows determining the number of maximum recognizable clusters and thus protects from the unreasonable conclusions and allows performing the preconditioning of data to be clustered simpler.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
