List of the used datasets for experiment 1 including their sizes. The last two columns represent the ratio of the Homogeneity (H) and the Separation (S) Z-scores between the MI measure and the best score from among the Pearson correlation and the Euclidean distance. These ratios are calculated based on 10-errors clustering solutions.
