A random sample of size N is divided into k clusters that minimize the within cluster sum of squares locally.This k-means clustering method can be used as a quick procedure for constructing variable-cell historgrams that have no empty cell.A histogram estimate is proposed in this paper, and is shown to be uniformly consistent in probability.1.
