Gordon-Vichi Macroeconomic Partition Ensemble Data
Description
Soft partitions of 21 countries based on macroeconomic data for the years 1975, 1980, 1985, 1990, and 1995.
Usage
data("GVME")Format
A named cluster ensemble of 5 soft partitions of 21 countries into 2 or 3 classes. The names are the years to which the partitions correspond.
Details
The partitions were obtained using fuzzy c-means on measurements
of the following variables: the annual per capita gross domestic
product (GDP) in USD (converted to 1987 prices); the percentage of GDP
provided by agriculture; the percentage of employees who worked in
agriculture; and gross domestic investment, expressed as a percentage
of the GDP. See Gordon and Vichi (2001), page 230, for more details.
