Description: Probabilistic distance clustering (PD-clustering) is an
        iterative, distribution-free, probabilistic clustering method.
        PD-clustering assigns units to a cluster according to their
        probability of membership under the constraint that the product
        of the probability and the distance of each point to any
        cluster center is a constant. PD-clustering is a flexible
        method that can be used with elliptical clusters, outliers, or
        noisy data. PDQ is an extension of the algorithm for clusters
        of different sizes. GPDC and TPDC use a dissimilarity measure
        based on densities. Factor PD-clustering (FPDC) is a factor
        clustering method that involves a linear transformation of
        variables and a cluster optimizing the PD-clustering criterion.
        It works on high-dimensional data sets.
