This textbook is intended for graduate students and experts using methods of cluster analysis and applications in various fields. With clear explanations of ideas and precise definitions of notions, accompanied by numerous examples and exercises together with Mathematica programs and modules, Cluster Analysis and Applications is meant for students and researchers in various disciplines, working in data analysis or data science.PPN: PPN: 1765211328Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-SCS | ZDB-2-SXCS | ZDB-2-SEB
