Abstract Clusters, typically mined by modeling locality of attribute spaces, are often evaluated for their ability to demonstrate ‘enrichment’ of categorical features. A cluster enrichment procedure evaluates the membership of a cluster for significant representation in predefined categories of interest. While classical enrichment procedures assume a hard clustering definition, this paper introduces a new statistical test that computes enrichments for soft clusters. Application of the new test to several scientific datasets is given. More >
