background: selecting the correct statistical test and data mining method depends highly on the measurement scale of data, type of variables, and purpose of the analysis. different measurement scales are studied in details and statistical comparison, modeling, and data mining methods are studied based upon using several medical examples. we have presented two ordinal–variables clustering exampl...

Using a methodology comprised of model-based clustering and panel data analysis, we have tried to draw conclusions from real-life meteorological based on philosophy science. In this study, used consisting yearly observations annual mean temperatures gathered the 58 stations in regions Turkey compared results other agglomerative methods that were derived upon an earlier study aforementioned data...

Permeability, the ability of rocks to flow hydrocarbons, is directly determined from core. Due to high cost associated with coring, many techniques have been suggested to predict permeability from the easy-to-obtain and frequent properties of reservoirs such as log derived porosity. This study was carried out to put clustering methods (dynamic clustering (DC), ascending hierarchical clustering ...

Identifying clusters is an important aspect of data analysis. This paper proposes a noveldata clustering algorithm to increase the clustering accuracy. A novel game theoretic self-organizingmap (NGTSOM ) and neural gas (NG) are used in combination with Competitive Hebbian Learning(CHL) to improve the quality of the map and provide a better vector quantization (VQ) for clusteringdata. Different ...
