Cluster analysis | Spatial analysis
A geographical cluster is a localized anomaly, usually an excess of something given the distribution or variation of something else. Often it is considered as an incidence rate that is unusual in that there is more of some variable than might be expected. Examples would include: a local excess disease rate, a crime hot spot, areas of high unemployment, accident blackspots, unusually high positive residuals from a model, high concentrations of flora or fauna, areas with high levels of creative activity, physical features or events like earthquake epicenters etc... Identifying these extreme regions may be useful in that there could be implicit geographical associations with other variables that can be identified and would be of interest. Pattern detection via the identification of such geographical clusters is a very simple and generic form of geographical analysis that has many applications in many different contexts. The emphasis is on localized clustering or patterning because this may well contain the most useful information. A geographical cluster is different from a high concentration as it is generally second order, involving the factoring in of the distribution of something else. (Wikipedia).

http://www.teachastronomy.com/ Sometimes stars appear to be close to each other on the plane of the sky, but how do we know if these stars are physically close to each other in three dimensional space? For an individual pair of stars, without additional information, we don't know, but for

Clustering 1: monothetic vs. polythetic
Full lecture: http://bit.ly/K-means The aim of clustering is to partition a population into sub-groups (clusters). Clusters can be monothetic (where all cluster members share some common property) or polythetic (where all cluster members are similar to each other in some sense).
