clusEvol: An R package for Cluster Evolution Analytics

The paper proposes a new R package, named clusEvol, that introduces Cluster Evolution Analytics (CEA), a framework for advanced Exploratory Data Analysis and Unsupervised Learning. CEA studies the evolution of an object and its neighbors, identified via clustering algorithms, over time. It combines...

description The paper proposes a new R package, named clusEvol, that introduces Cluster Evolution Analytics (CEA), a framework for advanced Exploratory Data Analysis and Unsupervised Learning. CEA studies the evolution of an object and its neighbors, identified via clustering algorithms, over time. It combines leave-one-out and plug-in principles, enabling “what if” scenarios by integrating current data into past datasets to explore temporal changes. The framework is demonstrated with a real dataset employing various clustering algorithms.
