Help me to resolve this Error In My GUI ( I am doing hand signal recognition) - An empty cluster error occurred in every replicate.

I already made the GUI and snapshot working well, meanwhile sometimes I got this error can some1 explain it to me why?

THIS IS THE ERROR

    ??? Error using ==> kmeans at 382
    An empty cluster error occurred in every replicate.

    Error in ==> segmentizeImage1 at 12
            [cluster_idx cluster_center] = kmeans(ab,nColors,'distance','sqEuclidean', ...

    Error in ==> bui_simple>start_snap_Callback at 108

    ??? Error while evaluating uicontrol Callback

    REFER THE CODE BELOW ( I used it to track and crop the hand automatically):
    warning off stats:kmeans:EmptyCluster;
            rawImage = x;  %x = is the image taken on snapshot
            I = rawImage;
            cform = makecform('srgb2lab');
            J = applycform(I,cform);
            ab = double(J(:,:,2:3));
            nrows = size(ab,1);
            ncols = size(ab,2);
            ab = reshape(ab,nrows*ncols,2);
            nColors = 2;
            [cluster_idx cluster_center] = kmeans(ab,nColors,'distance','sqEuclidean', ...
                                              'Replicates',2);
            pixel_labels = reshape(cluster_idx,nrows,ncols);
            segmented_images = cell(1,2);
            rgb_label = repmat(pixel_labels,[1 1 3]);

            for k = 1:nColors
            color = I;
            color(rgb_label ~= k) = 0;
            segmented_images{k} = color;
            end

            mean_cluster_value = mean(cluster_center,2);
            [tmp, idx] = sort(mean_cluster_value);
            hand_cluster_num = idx(2);

            K = segmented_images{hand_cluster_num};
            L = im2bw(segmented_images{hand_cluster_num},0.000);

            s = regionprops(rgb_label, I, {'Centroid','BoundingBox'}); 
            % s(hand_cluster_num).Centroid 
            % s(hand_cluster_num).BoundingBox 

              centroid_x = uint16(s(hand_cluster_num).Centroid(1));
              centroid_y = uint16(s(hand_cluster_num).Centroid(2));
              cropped_x = uint16(s(hand_cluster_num).BoundingBox(1))+1;
              cropped_y = uint16(s(hand_cluster_num).BoundingBox(2))+1;
              cropped_w = uint16(s(hand_cluster_num).BoundingBox(4))-2;
              cropped_h = uint16(s(hand_cluster_num).BoundingBox(5))-2;

              % apply gaussian blur to remove noise
              PSF = fspecial('gaussian',7,10);
              L = imfilter(L,PSF,'symmetric','conv');

              % cropped region of interest from main image
              M = L( cropped_y : (cropped_y+cropped_h),  cropped_x: (cropped_x+cropped_w) );   

              % trim leading and leading zeroes
              M(:, logical(sum(abs(M)) == 0)) = [];
              cropped_h = size(M,1);
              cropped_w = size(M,2);
              non_zeroes = find(sum(abs(L))~=0);
              cropped_x = non_zeroes(1);

              % fill holes to remove flares        
              M = imfill(M, 'holes');
              y = M;
              z = imresize(y, [40 30]);
              z = z(:);

any reply? please help me...

We can't really replicate your code. Just check the inputs to kmeans() and make sure they are all proper.
