The K-Modes algorithm, developed for clustering categorical data, is of high algorithmic simplicity but suffers from unreliable performances in clustering quality and clustering efficiency, both heavily influenced by the choice of initial…
We consider compressed sensing of block-sparse signals, i.e., sparse signals that have nonzero coefficients occuring in clusters. Based on an uncertainty relation for block-sparse signals, we define a block-coherence measure and we show…
k-means has recently been recognized as one of the best algorithms for clustering unsupervised data. Since k-means depends mainly on distance calculation between all data points and the centers, the time cost will be high when the size of…
In this work, we study the $k$-median and $k$-means clustering problems when the data is distributed across many servers and can contain outliers. While there has been a lot of work on these problems for worst-case instances, we focus on…
A natural way to characterize the cluster structure of a dataset is by finding regions containing a high density of data. This can be done in a nonparametric way with a kernel density estimate, whose modes and hence clusters can be found…

Clustering partitions a dataset such that observations placed together in a group are similar but different from those in other groups. Hierarchical and $K$-means clustering are two approaches but have different strengths and weaknesses.…
