Malaysia household incomes classification prediction with k-means clustering and fuzzy inference system

The economy level of the citizen has become a main concern for Malaysia as a developing country to improve the living status. On this point of view, the household income data would be a very useful information to measure the economic status of the population in Malaysia. This study aims to build a c...

Thus, this study focuses on three main objectives which are (a) To apply K-means clustering on household incomes data, (b) To propose the prediction of household incomes classification using FIS, and (c) To analyze and validate the classification solution for household incomes and to compare with discriminant analysis.
