Applications of a Novel Clustering Approach Using Non-Negative Matrix Factorization to Environmental Research in Public Health

Often data can be represented as a matrix, e.g., observations as rows and variables as columns, or as a doubly classified contingency table. Researchers may be interested in clustering the observations, the variables, or both. If the data is non-negative, then Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF)...
