Clustering refers to an array of data analysis techniques that can be used to partition a dataset into groups [1,2]. Clustering is generally used as a first pass through a dataset about which little is known in an effort to organize the information for further analysis. Once this information is organized in some way, the user will often make additional hypotheses and/or perform additional analysis.
