iFit/kmeans

PURPOSE ^

[b,c] = kmeans(X, k) : k-means clustering of iData object

SYNOPSIS ^

function [s,c] = kmeans(a, k, method)

DESCRIPTION ^

 [b,c] = kmeans(X, k) : k-means clustering of iData object

   @iData/kmeans function to partition the object X into k classes.

   b = kmeans(X,k) partitions the Signal in the iData object X into k clusters.
     The resulting object Signal contains numbers from 1 to 'k' which are indices
     of segments/partitions.
     When no cluster can be found, the result is empty.
   b = kmeans(X)   assumes k=2 partitions

   [b,c] = kmeans(X,k) also returns the centroid of the clusters/partitions/segments.

   b = kmeans(X, k, 'otsu')
     uses the Otsu method, for 2D data sets
   b = kmeans(X, k, 'kmeans++')
     uses the K-means++ method, for 2D data sets

 input:  X: object or array (iData)
         k: number of partitions wanted (integer, default is 2)
         method: '' for default, 'otsu' for Otsu method (only for 2D images).
 output: b: object or array with partition indices (iData)
         c: centroid locations of clusters
 ex:     a=iData(peaks); b=kmeans(a);
