- data
A tibble.
- cols
A tidy selection of item columns or a single column with cluster values as a factor.
If the column already contains a cluster result from add_clusters, it is used, and other parameters are ignored.
If no cluster result exists, it is calculated with add_clusters.
- newcol
Name of the new cluster column as a character vector.
Set to NULL (default) to automatically build a name
from the common column prefix, prefixed with "cls_".
- k
Number of clusters to calculate.
Set to NULL to output a scree plot for up to 10 clusters
and automatically choose the number of clusters based on the elbow criterion.
The within-sums of squares for the scree plot are calculated by
stats::kmeans
.
- method
The method as character value. Currently, only kmeans is supported.
All items are scaled before performing the cluster analysis using
base::scale
.
- labels
If TRUE (default) extracts labels from the attributes, see codebook.
- clean
Prepare data by data_clean.
- ...
Placeholder to allow calling the method with unused parameters from plot_metrics.
