Thank you.
How should I interpret the following membership probabilities that don't
make sense to me at all:
1) some of the respondents have zero probabilities for all three classes
2) the fifth respondent (see below) is in the class 1 and 3 with probability
close to one, how is that possible? Shouldn't the probabilities of the
respondent always sum up to one?
Here are the first 10 respondents' membership probabilities for 3 classes:
0 0 0
0 0 0
0 0 0
0 0 0
0.999999 1.40021e-006 0.999997
2.82723e-006 0.00556675 0.994433
0.999989 1.55484e-006 9.32038e-006
2.96642e-005 0.0245403 0.97543
0.0625064 0.93283 0.00466341
0.999993 8.63623e-007 5.8132e-006
