clusterSim: Searching for Optimal Clustering Procedure for a Data Set

Distance measures (GDM1, GDM2, Sokal-Michener, Bray-Curtis, for symbolic interval-valued data), cluster quality indices (Calinski-Harabasz, Baker-Hubert, Hubert-Levine, Silhouette, Krzanowski-Lai, Hartigan, Gap, Davies-Bouldin), data normalization formulas (metric data, interval-valued symbolic data), data generation (typical and non-typical data), HINoV method, replication analysis, linear ordering methods, spectral clustering, agreement indices between two partitions, plot functions (for categorical and symbolic interval-valued data).
