Hello all, I have a dataset that includes both categorical and numerical features, and I’m looking to perform clustering on it. I’ve read that Gower’s Distance (code is available) is suitable for handling mixed data types. However, I am getting an "isnan" error. How can I fix the problem? Thanks for the help.
DataSet = readtable("Test.xlsx", ‘ReadVariableNames’, true);
GowerDst = gower(DataSet);
[Idx, C] = kmedoids(DataSet, 2, ‘Distance’, GowerDst);
