The algorithm as I listed it seems fairly straightforward and easy to
understand. Are you having difficulty with that? If, instead, you're
having problems with somebody's implementation of the algorithm that
they uploaded to the File Exchange, then I suggest you contact the
author.

Did you really mean that you have the same number of clusters as you
have points?

How many points do you have and what is their dimension?

Are there any restrictions on
1. The maximum number of clusters
2. The maximum number of members per cluster
3. The maximum member to cluster center difference
4. The maximum member to cluster root-mean-square distance.

Yes its

a problem with an implementation on file exchange. I have wrote a comment on the page where the file is, and hopefully the author will reply.

I am trying to cluster roughly 500 pairs of points - i.e. the data is 2 dimensional.

Theoretically, there are no maximum number of clusters, although there definatley should not be the same number of clusters, as points to cluster - i know this because of how my algorithm works, prior to the clustering.

There are no maximum number of members per cluster.

There is no maximum member to cluster centre difference.

I dont know what the maximum member to cluster root-mean-square distance.

Thanks very much

So how is that QT algorithm working for you? If you want to try
others, do a search for "unsupervised classification"
