Hello,
I would like to have any help with the function Kmeans of R..
I use this to do a classification of my data...I have chosen 12 classes but, I have always an error message: Error: empty cluster: try a better set of initial centers


So, I don't understand the probleme with this function..
Thank you to help me!!

Well, after running, there are less than 12 clusters with observations found by kmeans(). The error message suggests to specify initial cluster centers instead of randomly chosen ones, if you have got a rough guess where centers will be.


BTW: If you have got known "classes", don't you want to perform classification rather than clustering???
