After defining the aforementioned parameters, the user shall click on the  ‘RUN’ button (green tab in Figure 4) and the calculations are performed. The Status changes from 'CREATED' through  'SENT_TO_SERVER', 'RUNNING' and finally 'FINISHED' and the output is created and plotted in the main window. The Analysis Results table appear on the screen and comprise the following outputs:

A) summary report (Figure 2, red frame) with the number of events included in each cluster created together with the center of mass of each cluster in each one of the dimensions in the selected parameter phase space (in Equivalent Dimensions, therefore ranging between 0 to 1). If the phase space has 2 or 3 Dimensions (2 or 3 parameters  have been selected for cluster analysis), then an additional 2D or 3D plot in the corresponding phase space is also created (Figure 2). The summary report is also available and can be downloaded as mat file (cluster_analysis_out_cluster.mat)

B) A matlab structure (mat) with the transformed parameters of each event together with an index of the cluster to which each event belongs.

C) If Clustering Algorithm “Hierarchical” is selected, a Ward diagram is produced as well showing the linkage distance among the events and the number of clusters created (Figure 3).
