"Help With Cluster Output"

Question

Hello to Rapid-I Team,

One quick question :

I have a dataset which consists of Age, Number of children, Income etc. I am trying to run K-means through the dataset and everything works ok. However i would like to get the following format :

Cluster 0 : Age 22.5, Income : 1225, Children 0.25
Cluster 1 : Age 34.2,Income : 2300,Children : 2

Can RM output such information or it can provide just centroid distances???

Thanks!

You can check this yourself by clicking on the operators in the operator tree and then pressing F1. In the operator help dialog the inputs and outputs are listed. Another way is to use breakpoints in the process and inspect the intermediate results.

In principal, your process setup is right. You can however use the [tt]IOMultiplier[/tt] alternatively, which allows you to generate a copy of an object before one of this will be consumed. Another way would be to use the [tt]IOStorer[/tt] - [tt]IORetriever[/tt] mechanism, which does not require the object being saved to disk.

Kind regards,
Tobias
