Abstract

Cluster analysis is the automated search for groups of related observations in a data set. To group the observations into clusters many techniques has been proposed, and a variety measures aimed at validating the results of a cluster analysis have been suggested. In this paper, we compare complete linkage, Ward's method, K-means and model-based clustering and compute validity measures such as connectivity, Dunn Index and silhouette with simulated data from multivariate distributions. We also select a clustering algorithm and determine the number of clusters of Korean consumers based on Korean consumers' palatability scores for Hanwoo bull in BBQ cooking method.

자발적인 군집을 유도하는 다변량 통계기법으로 널리 사용되는 군집분석은 데이터에 기반한 탐색적 방법으로 쓰이며 군집원칙에 따라 여러 가지 방법이 제안되어 왔다. 또한 군집화된 결과에 대하여 유효성을 측정하는 측도도 다양한방법이 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 계층적 군집분석 방법으로 최장연결법과 Ward의 방법, 비계층적 군집분석 방법으로 K-평균법 그리고 확률분포정보를 활용한 모형기반 군집분석방법을 이용하여 모의실험으로 군집분석을 실시하고 군집유효성 측도로는 연결성, Dunn 지수, 실루엣을 구하여 각 군집방법에 대해 유효성을 비교한다. 또한, 한우 관능평가 데이터에 군집분석을 적용하여 최적의 군집 상황을 구하고자 한다.
