Clustering large, mixed data is a central problem in data mining. Many approaches adopt the idea of k-means, and hence are sensitive to initialisation, detect only spherical clusters, and require a priori the unknown number of clusters. We…

Being robust to the presence of outliers is crucial for applying clustering algorithms in practice. In the $\textit{robust $k$-Means}$ problem (i.e., $k$-Means with outliers), the goal is to remove $z$ outliers and minimize the $k$-Means…
