Abstract
Conventional cluster validity techniques usually represent all the validity information available about a particular clustering by a single number. The display method introduced here is an alternative to standard validity functionals. The proposed approach uses intensity images generated from the results of any prototype generator clustering algorithm as a means for cluster validation. Several numerical examples are given to illustrate the method.
