Fuzzy clustering procedures for categorical data are proposed in the paper. Most of well-known conventional clustering methods face certain difficulties while processing this sort of data because a notion of similarity is missing in these data. A detailed description of a possibilistic fuzzy clustering method based on frequency-based cluster prototypes and dissimilarity measures for categorical data is given.
