Thank you Mort,
concerning the "order of data points" it is necessary to think about
the construction of the RGB Data space. The original RGB image is a 3
dim. array e.g. [3,ImageSizeX, ImageSizeY]. The RGB Data space, which
should be clustered concerning only the grey values and without
consideration of the pixel locations, has two dimensions e.g. [3,
NumberOfPixels ]. Therefore the individual image pixels are
transformed in a sequence of RGB triple values ("data points"). The
first triple values correspond to the pixel located at [3, 0, 0] e.g.
the left bottom corner of the image. If the image is mirrored, rotated
ore transposed before RGB space construction, then the first RGB
triple value will be altered. Nevertheless all the individual image
pixels were transformed into the RGB space, only the sequence is
changed.

Thanks,
Helmut
