Clustering methods are usually exploratory analysis methods which elucidate the similarity within a set of samples. They are often used to determine if there are natural groupings and/or particularly unique individuals or groups within a set. Classification, on the other hand, uses data with known group assignments and produces models which can be used to determine which group(s), if any, a new sample belongs to. This course will discuss various clustering and classification methods and the practical considerations for using them. The course includes follow-along demonstrations with PLS_Toolbox or Solo
