Abstract

Some preliminary results towards the clusterization of voters inhabiting various regions of Russia are described; the clusterization is based on the homology of the electoral behaviour. The clusters were identified with the help of both K-means unsupervised classification and elastic map technique implementation. The factors affecting the electoral behaviour of the voters from different regions are enlisted.
