  <dc:title>Fuzzy C-Means for Fuzzy Data</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package fcmfd version 0.1.2</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Implements a fuzzy clustering approach for ordinal Likert-type data
    using triangular fuzzy numbers (TFNs). The package extends the classical
    fuzzy C-means algorithm to better handle uncertainty in ordinal scales and
    includes automatic selection of the number of clusters using the Xie-Beni
    validity index. References: Coppi, R., D'Urso, P., and Giordani, P. (2012),
