    Abstract

    The work in this paper introduces finite mixture models that can be used tosimultaneously cluster the rows and columns of ordinal categorical responsedata. Model-fitting is performed using the EM algorithm and a fuzzy allocationof rows and columns to corresponding clusters is obtained. The clusteringability of the models is evaluated, and compared to that of k-means,in a simulation study, and demonstrated using two real data sets.
