Purpose

This function is for use with clustering models that have been created using the DBMS_DATA_MINING package or with the Oracle Data Mining Java API. It returns the cluster identifier of the predicted cluster with the highest probability for the set of predictors specified in the mining_attribute_clause. The value returned is an Oracle NUMBER.

The mining_attribute_clause behaves as described for the PREDICTION function. Please refer to mining_attribute_clause.

PREDICTION

Examples

The following example lists the clusters into which customers of a given dataset have been grouped.

This example, and the prerequisite data mining operations, including the creation of the dm_sh_clus_sample model and the dm_sh_sample_apply_prepared view, can be found in the demo file $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/demo/dmkmdemo.sql. General information on data mining demo files is available in Oracle Data Mining Administrator's Guide. The example is presented here to illustrate the syntactic use of the function.

SELECT CLUSTER_ID(km_sh_clus_sample USING *) AS clus, COUNT(*) AS cnt 
  FROM km_sh_sample_apply_prepared
GROUP BY CLUSTER_ID(km_sh_clus_sample USING *)
ORDER BY cnt DESC;
