Human mobility clustering is an important problem for understanding human mobility behaviors (e.g., work and school commutes). Existing methods typically contain two steps: choosing or learning a mobility representation and applying a…
Evaluating the performance of clustering models is a challenging task where the outcome depends on the definition of what constitutes a cluster. Due to this design, current existing metrics rarely handle multiple clustering models with…
Deep clustering is a deep neural network-based speech separation algorithm that first trains the mixed component of signals with high-dimensional embeddings, and then uses a clustering algorithm to separate each mixture of sources. In this…
A relational dataset is often analyzed by optimally assigning a label to each element through clustering or ordering. While similar characterizations of a dataset would be achieved by both clustering and ordering methods, the former has…
Process mining provides various algorithms to analyze process executions based on event data. Process discovery, the most prominent category of process mining techniques, aims to discover process models from event logs, however, it leads to…
Matrix valued data has become increasingly prevalent in many applications. Most of the existing clustering methods for this type of data are tailored to the mean model and do not account for the dependence structure of the features, which…
