Cluster Summary for Nominal Variables

The "Cluster Summary for Nominal Variables" table displays the following for each cluster when the variables that are specified in the INPUT statement are nominal:

  • cluster number

  • frequency (the number of observations in the cluster)

  • maximum, minimum, and average distances from the cluster centroid to the observations in the cluster

  • within-cluster distance

  • nearest cluster (the ID of the cluster whose centroid is closest to the current cluster’s centroid)

  • distance between the cluster centroid of the current cluster and the nearest cluster

If the number of observations in a cluster is zero, then this cluster is not displayed in the "Cluster Summary for Nominal Variables" table.
