A method for clustering data elements stored in a data storage system includes reading data elements from the data storage system. Clusters of data elements are formed with each data element being a member of at least one cluster. At least one data element is associated with two or more clusters. Membership of the data element belonging to respective ones of the two or more clusters is represented by a measure of ambiguity. Information is stored in the data storage system to represent the formed clusters.
