The heuristic -means algorithm, widely used for cluster analysis, does not guarantee optimality. We developed a dynamic programming algorithm for optimal one-dimensional clustering. The algorithm is implemented as an R package called . We demonstrate its advantage in optimality and runtime over the standard iterative -means algorithm.
