  Is there any reason why clustering is always(atleast what I
  saw in books) unsupervised ?

  Are there any clustering methods which are used when the
  category information (class membership) is available ?

  Is Kmeans clustering only unsupervised or is it used
  with the class information ?


  I'd appreciate any help.
