Creating a Cluster Plot
Overview
A cluster plot can be used to display the profiles of individual members within a cluster. The cluster plot can be launched from a partitional clustering experiment in the Experiments navigator or from a centroid plot. By selecting one or more cluster centroids and then launching the cluster plot it is possible to visually 'drill down' into the clusters to view the individual member profiles.
Actions
