Abstract: The purpose of multicriteria clustering is to locate groups of alternatives that have comparable qualities and have been examined across multiple criteria. An ordered profile clustering is a well-known problem, and the fuzzy c-means clustering (FCM) technique is one of the most broadly used in every field of life. At present, FCM is for the partitioning of information into numerous clusters which are still lacking priority relations. To address the problem of finding ranking in clusters based on multicriteria in the fuzzy environment, we propose a multicriteria ordered clustering algorithm based on the partial net outranking flow of the preference organization for enrichment evaluations method (PROMETHEE) and fuzzy c-means. Lastly, we apply the proposed algorithm to solve a real-world targeted clustering problem regarding the human development indexes. To test the efficacy of the proposed algorithm, a comparative analysis of ordered K-means clustering (OKM) and FCM is carried out with it.
