"Flatten clustering's centroid"

Remixman

We have the centroid plot view for visualize clustering centroid in k-means operator. But when use agglomerative + flatten cluster, I can't see the centroid. Are there any method to show flatten clustering's centroid.

Agglomerative cluster models don't work with the Extract Cluster Prototypes operator; it expects a centroid model. You would have to calculate them manually using the Aggregate operator.

Something like this

<process version="5.3.008">
  <context>
    <input/>
    <output/>
    <macros/>
