Description

This R script performs a combined SOM/SuperSOM clustering of the 640 administrative districs of India. Fowlkes-Mallows Similarity Index is used to identify robust initializations of the clustering. Data_India.txt is a specially conceived geographic database of 55 indicators, covering issues of economic activity, urban structure, socio-demographic development, consumption levels, infrastructure endowment and  basic geographical positioning within the Indian space. Data refer to 2011 or to 2001-2011 evolutions.

Warnng: This is an old version of the project. Version 1.2 available at https://zenodo.org/record/2563213#.XGQl01xKiiz

Notes

Robust SOM Clustering is part of the Geo-Soft Models Project: https://zenodo.org/communities/geo-soft-models
