Functional data present unique challenges for clustering due to their infinite-dimensional nature and potential sensitivity to outliers. An extension of the OCLUST algorithm to the functional setting is proposed to address these issues. The approach leverages the OCLUST framework, creating a robust method to cluster curves and trim outliers. The methodology is evaluated on both simulated and real-world functional datasets, demonstrating strong performance in clustering and outlier identification.
