"Cluster analysis is a statistical technique that is used in many
different domains.

Image segmentation, text categorization and micro-array data analysis
all involve cluster analysis, and color clustering in a colored image
is also important.

Can you suggest some other important applications of cluster analysis
outside the domain of pattern recognition? Pointers in the literature
are very much appreciated."

Cluster analysis is popular in marketing for customer segmentation. 
Hierarchical clustering is sometimes used in biology to "arrange"
trees of species (cladistics).
