cluster model

A cluster model is a way to analyze data by grouping similar items together based on shared characteristics. Imagine sorting a collection of coins by size and type—you form clusters of similar coins. In data analysis, this helps identify natural groupings within complex information, revealing patterns or segments that are meaningful. The goal is to organize data into cohesive groups that can help in understanding trends, making predictions, or tailoring strategies, without predefined labels, allowing the data itself to show how items naturally relate.
