Data Warehouses and Data Mining techniques are becoming indispensable parts of business intelligence programs. Use these links to learn more about these emerging fields and keep on top of this trend.
k-means Clustering
k-means clustering is a data mining/machine learning algorithm used to cluster observations into groups of related observations without any prior knowledge of those relationships. The k-means algorithm is one of the simplest clustering techniques and it is commonly used in medical imaging, biometrics and related fields.
