Extract and save the items of each cluster in an Excel file

Hi @ahootanha,

To answer to your first question, one method is to use the Filter Examples and Write Excel operators.

Here an example of process with 3 clusters : 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><process version="8.1.000">
  <context>
    <input/>
    <output/>
    <macros/>
  </context>

    <process expanded="true">
      <operator activated="true" class="retrieve" compatibility="8.1.000" expanded="true" height="68" name="Retrieve Iris" width="90" x="112" y="34">
        <parameter key="repository_entry" value="//Samples/data/Iris"/>
      </operator>
      <operator activated="true" class="concurrency:k_means" compatibility="8.1.000" expanded="true" height="82" name="Clustering" width="90" x="313" y="34">
        <parameter key="k" value="3"/>
      </operator>
      <operator activated="true" class="filter_examples" compatibility="8.1.000" expanded="true" height="103" name="Filter Examples" width="90" x="514" y="34">
        <list key="filters_list">
          <parameter key="filters_entry_key" value="cluster.equals.cluster_0"/>
        </list>
      </operator>
      <operator activated="true" class="write_excel" compatibility="8.1.000" expanded="true" height="82" name="Write Excel" width="90" x="715" y="34">

        <list key="filters_list">
          <parameter key="filters_entry_key" value="cluster.equals.cluster_1"/>
        </list>
      </operator>
      <operator activated="true" class="filter_examples" compatibility="8.1.000" expanded="true" height="103" name="Filter Examples (3)" width="90" x="514" y="340">

          <parameter key="filters_entry_key" value="cluster.equals.cluster_2"/>
        </list>
      </operator>
      <operator activated="true" class="write_excel" compatibility="8.1.000" expanded="true" height="82" name="Write Excel (2)" width="90" x="715" y="187">

      </operator>
      <operator activated="true" class="write_excel" compatibility="8.1.000" expanded="true" height="82" name="Write Excel (3)" width="90" x="715" y="340">

  </operator>

To answer to your second question, I don't know what is "fuzzy clustering", but

if you don't know, a priori, the number of cluster(s), you can use the X-Means operator : This model determine

the correct number of cluster(s) based on the Bayesian Information Criteria (BIC).

I hope it helps,

Lionel

Hi again @ahootanha,

To better answer to your first question, you can find here a more flexible process

using the Loop Values operator : it is independant of the number of cluster(s).

Hello
thank you very much
But
I do not know where to use these code in my  rapidminer program?
Please guide
Send me a screenshot of the implementation of operators
Thanks

look
The field to choose the name of the clusters is empty
Help me please

@ahootanha did you search for this problem on the threads? It's probably due to the meta-data not propograting correctly. You can type in the attribute name (case sensitive) and it will work.
