clustering of 1d data

So let's say I have an array like this:
[1,1,2,3,10,11,13,67,71]
Is there a convenient way to partition the array into something like this?
[[1,1,2,3],[10,11,13],[67,71]]
I searched with this topic...it seems that kmeans is not a suitable solution for 1d data.. Jenks Natural Breaks Optimization or Kernel Density Estimation could be an option..but which method will be suitable for matlab implementation? Is there any other way in matlab?

Yes, you can apply the Jenks Natural Breaks iteratively to split the array into several classes based on the similarity of the elements. I wrote a function that applies this method to a one-dimensional array to split it into two classes. You can use it several times while updating the data array.
Function: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/72677-clustering-via-jenks-natural-breaks
Example:
data = [1,1,2,3,10,11,13,67,71];
total = length (data);
% Split the initial array into two classes based on Jenks Natural Breaks
[SDCM_All, GF] = get_jenks_interface(data);
% get the first interface: index of maximum Goodness of Variance Fit
[M, I1] = max(GF);
% extract sub_array 3
sub_array_3 = data(I1+1:total);
% get the reamining elements
remaining_elements = data (1:I1);
total = length(remaining_elements);
% Split the remaining elements into two classes based on Jenks natural breaks
[SDCM_All, GF] = get_jenks_interface(remaining_elements);
% get the second interface: index that has the maximum Goodness of Variance Fit
[M, I2] = max(GF);
% extract sub_array_2
sub_array_2 = data(I2+1:total);
% extract sub_array_1
sub_array_1 = data(1:I2);
disp(sub_array_1);
disp(sub_array_2);
disp(sub_array_3);
>>>>>>>> Output:
>> main
1 1 2 3
10 11 13
67 71

I have just re-written your code in a more compact way, allowing you to select as many classes as you want (in this example, classes = 4):
clc; clear output sub_array;
input = [1,1,2,3,10,11,13,67,71];
classes = 4;
for i = 1 : classes-1
if i == 1
data = input;
elseif i > 1
data = remaining_elements;
end
total = length (data);
[SDCM_All, GF] = get_jenks_interface(data);
[M, I1] = max(GF);
sub_array{i} = data(I1+1:total);
remaining_elements = data (1:I1);
end
output = vertcat({data(1:I1)}, flipud(sub_array'));
output{:}
The result with
classes = 4;
is the following:
ans =
1 1
ans =
2 3
ans =
10 11 13
ans =
67 71

data = [1, 1, 2, 3, 10, 11, 13, 67, 71]'
idx = kmeans( data, 3 );
seems to give the correct clustering if you then apply that indexing to your data.
Unfortunately one thing I find with kmeans is that you get the indexing of your clusters in an arbitrary order, but you can define cluster centres I think to stop that.
