Sumario:Correspondence analysis followed by clustering of both rows and columns of a data matrix is proposed as an approach to two-way clustering. The novelty of this contribution consists of: i) proposing a simple method for the selecting of the number of axes; ii) visualizing the data matrix as is done in micro-array analysis; iii) enhancing this representation by emphasizing those variables and those individuals which are 'well represented' in the subspace of the chosen axes. The approach is applied to a 'traditional' clustering problem: the classification of a group of psychiatric patients.
