Description

Implements a fuzzy clustering approach for ordinal Likert-type data using triangular fuzzy numbers (TFNs). The package extends the classical fuzzy C-means algorithm to better handle uncertainty in ordinal scales and includes automatic selection of the number of clusters using the Xie-Beni validity index.
