Sense I�m no expert when it comes to clustering, it�s hard for me to be more specific. But in the article model-based cluster analysis is described as "In model-based cluster analysis data are represented by a mixture model in which each component corresponds to a different cluster. Models with varying geomteric properties are obtained through Gaussian compnents with different parameterixations and cross-cluster constraints..." I hope this gives you a clue to what I`m after. I appreciate all the help and suggestions I can get.
