Dear Art, 

For anyone wanting this article or any other in JoC, having all back issues
of JoC accessible online is a great resource, and a great benefit of CSNA
membership.

I didn't see that article because my 2001 Journal of Classification
issues were sent to be sanitized after we had the anthrax scare at work
and were never returned.

This is obviously an approach to try.

K-modes clustering was originally developed by Anil Chaturvedi, Paul
Green and me in 1994, but, for various reasons, not published until
2001.  K-modes indeed is the optimal procedure to use for the problem
of clustering categorical data you describe.  The reference for our
paper is:

Chaturvedi, A.D.,  Green, P.E. & Carroll, J.D. (2001).  K-modes
clustering.  /Journal of Classification,/ 18, 35-56.

Hello,

I'd like to cluster categorical data (3 categories) by means of a
partitioning
method; I'm quite a beginner in that field and I would need to be
enlightened.
From a bibliographic review I carried out about that topic, it
appeared to me
that a method is often used :the k-modes method. From her/his
experience,
could anyone confirm or deny that it is the case ? If denied, which
method
could be more "powerful" ?

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards.
