Clustering of variables is the task of grouping similar variables into different groups. It may be useful in several situations such as dimensionality reduction, feature selection, and detect redundancies. In the present study, we combine two methods of features clustering the clustering of variables around latent variables (CLV) algorithm and the k-means based co-clustering algorithm (kCC). Indeed, classical CLV cannot be applied to high dimensional data because this approach becomes tedious when the number of features increases.
