| Automatic | Chooses best grouping technique among EqualArea, Clusters, and Threshold methods. | |
| Clusters | Finds buckets by performing single-dimensional clustering on the input values by using the K-Means algorithm. | |
| EqualAreas | Specifies that when the distribution of continuous values is plotted as a curve, the areas under the curve covered by each bucket range are equal. | |
| None | No grouping is requested. | |
| Thresholds | Specifies that when the distribution of continuous values is plotted as a curve, buckets are be created based on the inflection points (where gradient changes direction) in their distribution curve | |
| UserDefined | Specifies that the user can define a custom grouping of the members |
