Member name Description
None No grouping is requested.
Automatic Chooses best grouping technique among EqualArea, Clusters, and Threshold methods.
EqualAreas Specifies that when the distribution of continuous values is plotted as a curve, the areas under the curve covered by each bucket range are equal.
Clusters Finds buckets by performing single-dimensional clustering on the input values by using the K-Means algorithm.
Thresholds Specifies that when the distribution of continuous values is plotted as a curve, buckets are be created based on the inflection points (where gradient changes direction) in their distribution curve
UserDefined Specifies that the user can define a custom grouping of the members
