Abstract

Data mining is a search for relationship and patterns that exist in large database. Clustering is an important datamining technique . Because of the complexity and the high dimensionality of gene expression data, classification of a disease samples remains a challenge. Hierarchical clustering and partitioning clustering is used to identify patterns of gene expression useful for classification of samples. In this paper, we make a comparative study of two partitioning methods namely k-means and PAM to classify the cancer dataset.
