Table 1: Confusion matrices, size groups, estimates of the parameters, variability measures (between-groups and within-groups) and F -statistic for the EM algorithm (soft-movMF, hard-movMF, stochastic EM) and dynamic clusters algorithm (DC), for the sample size of 20 and concentrations equal to 5 or 10 (*: the results for the other three methods are equal).
