Abstract
In this comment, we report a difficulty with the application of the po ssibilistic approach to fuzzy clustering (PCM) proposed by Keller and Krishnapuram. In applying this algorithm we found that it has the unde sirable tendency to produce coincident clusters. Results illustrating this tendency are reported and a possible explanation for the PCM beha vior is suggested.
