public bool Standardize { get; set; }

Property Value

Boolean

Remarks

The default value for this property is false.

When variables are unequally scaled, some variables will make a larger contribution to the distance than others. This can distort the clustering. To avoid this problem, the variables can be standardized so they all contribute equally to the distance.
