Abstract: Clustering infant nutrition based on weight, height, and age is a data analysis method used to group infant nutritional status based on these characteristics. The research on clustering infant nutrition aims to analyze whether there are still many infants in the area with insufficient or excessive nutrition, and to identify groups of infants requiring special attention regarding their nutritional intake. In the analysis of infant nutrition clustering, data on weight, height, and age of infants are collected and then grouped based on similarities in body height and weight at certain ages. The method used in this research is hierarchical clustering, which can help in grouping the data. Clustering analysis can help understand how infants' feeding patterns vary based on their weight, height, and age. The results of research on clustering infant nutrition based on weight, height, and age can provide valuable insights for nutrition experts, pediatricians, and community health workers in developing appropriate intervention programs to improve infant feeding patterns and meet their nutritional needs. Additionally, the results of clustering infant nutrition can also be used to identify groups of infants requiring special attention regarding their nutritional needs, thus minimizing the risk of malnutrition and unhealthy growth in infants.
