Given a collection of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, the goal of the $(k,z)$-clustering problem is to find a subset of $k$ "centers" that minimizes the sum of the $z$-th powers of the Euclidean distance of each point to the closest center.…
Among ensemble clustering methods, Evidence Accumulation Clustering is one of the simplest technics. In this approach, a co-association (CA) matrix representing the co-clustering frequency is built and then clustered to extract consensus…
In this work, the possibility of clustering correlated random variables was examined, both because of their mutual similarity and because of their similarity to the principal components. The k-means algorithm and spectral algorithms were…
Model-based clustering is widely-used in a variety of application areas. However, fundamental concerns remain about robustness. In particular, results can be sensitive to the choice of kernel representing the within-cluster data density.…

Detection of change-points in a sequence of high-dimensional observations is a very challenging problem, and this becomes even more challenging when the sample size (i.e., the sequence length) is small. In this article, we propose some…
\textit{Clustering problems} often arise in the fields like data mining, machine learning etc. to group a collection of objects into similar groups with respect to a similarity (or dissimilarity) measure. Among the clustering problems,…

We develop a probabilistic method for assessing the tail behavior and geometric stability of one-dimensional n i.i.d. samples by tracking how their span contracts when the most extreme points are trimmed. Central to our approach is the…
In discrete k-center and k-median clustering, we are given a set of points P in a metric space M, and the task is to output a set C \subseteq ? P, |C| = k, such that the cost of clustering P using C is as small as possible. For k-center,…
We study the efficient learnability of high-dimensional Gaussian mixtures in the outlier-robust setting, where a small constant fraction of the data is adversarially corrupted. We resolve the polynomial learnability of this problem when the…
