Abstract

A Generalized INDCLUS model, termed GINDCLUS, is presented for clustering three-way two-mode proximity data. In order to account for the heterogeneity of the data, both a partition of the subjects into homogeneous classes and a covering of the objects into groups are simultaneously determined. Furthermore, the availability of information which is external to the three-way data is exploited to better account for such heterogeneity: the weights of both classifications are linearly linked to external variables allowing for the identification of meaningful classes of subjects and groups of objects. The model is fitted in a least-squares framework, and an efficient Alternating Least-Squares algorithm is provided. An extensive simulation study and an application on benchmark data are also presented.
