ClusterR (version 1.0.1)

soybean: The soybean (large) data set from the UCI repository

Description

There are 19 classes, only the first 15 of which have been used in prior work. The folklore seems to be that the last four classes are unjustified by the data since they have so few examples. There are 35 categorical attributes, some nominal and some ordered. The value 'dna' means does not apply. The values for attributes are encoded numerically, with the first value encoded as '0', the second as '1', and so forth. Unknown values were imputated using the mice package.
