title: 'fcmfd: Fuzzy C-Means for Fuzzy Data'
version: 0.1.1
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.fcmfd
abstract: 'Implements a fuzzy clustering approach for ordinal Likert-type data using
  triangular fuzzy numbers (TFNs). The package extends the classical fuzzy C-means
  algorithm to better handle uncertainty in ordinal scales and includes automatic
  selection of the number of clusters using the Xie-Beni validity index. References:
