Motivated by the increasing availability of low- and mixed-precision arithmetic on modern hardware, we develop mixed-precision variants of Lloyd's algorithm for k-means clustering. The main ingredient is a family of mixed-precision kernels…
The $k$-means algorithm is a prevalent clustering method due to its simplicity, effectiveness, and speed. However, its main disadvantage is its high sensitivity to the initial positions of the cluster centers. The global $k$-means is a…
This article proposes a first analysis of kernel spectral clustering methods in the regime where the dimension $p$ of the data vectors to be clustered and their number $n$ grow large at the same rate. We demonstrate, under a $k$-class…
Following Hartigan, a cluster is defined as a connected component of the t-level set of the underlying density, i.e., the set of points for which the density is greater than t. A clustering algorithm which combines a density estimate with…
While K-means is known to be a standard clustering algorithm, its performance may be compromised due to the presence of outliers and high-dimensional noisy variables. This paper proposes adaptively robust and sparse K-means clustering…
Kernel functions are a powerful tool to enhance the $k$-means clustering algorithm via the kernel trick. It is known that the parameters of the chosen kernel function can have a dramatic impact on the result. In supervised settings, these…
Spectral clustering is a popular and effective algorithm designed to find $k$ clusters in a graph $G$. In the classical spectral clustering algorithm, the vertices of $G$ are embedded into $\mathbb{R}^k$ using $k$ eigenvectors of the graph…
Centroid-based clustering algorithms, such as hard K-means (HKM) and fuzzy K-means (FKM), have suffered from learning bias towards large clusters. Their centroids tend to be crowded in large clusters, compromising performance when the true…
In addition to finding meaningful clusters, centroid-based clustering algorithms such as K-means or mean-shift should ideally find centroids that are valid patterns in the input space, representative of data in their cluster. This is…
We study the data selection problem, whose aim is to select a small representative subset of data that can be used to efficiently train a machine learning model. We present a new data selection approach based on $k$-means clustering and…
The number of accidents and health diseases which are increasing at an alarming rate are resulting in a huge increase in the demand for blood. There is a necessity for the organized analysis of the blood donor database or blood banks…
We relate Gruet formula for the heat kernel on real hyperbolic spaces to the commonly used one derived from Millson induction. The bridge between both formulas is settled by Yor result on the joint distribution of a Brownian motion and of…
Clustering is a fundamental problem in unsupervised machine learning with many applications in data analysis. Popular clustering algorithms such as Lloyd's algorithm and $k$-means++ can take $\Omega(ndk)$ time when clustering $n$ points in…
Load shapes derived from smart meter data are frequently employed to analyze daily energy consumption patterns, particularly in the context of applications like Demand Response (DR). Nevertheless, one of the most important challenges to…
We analyze the running time of the Hartigan-Wong method, an old algorithm for the $k$-means clustering problem. First, we construct an instance on the line on which the method can take $2^{\Omega(n)}$ steps to converge, demonstrating that…
Evaluation of the resistance of implemented cryptographic algorithms against SCA attacks, as well as detecting of SCA leakage sources at an early stage of the design process, is important for an efficient re-design of the implementation.…
NP-hard optimization problems scale very rapidly with problem size, becoming unsolvable with brute force methods, even with supercomputing resources. Typically, such problems have been approximated with heuristics. However, these methods…
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.…
The recent framework of compressive statistical learning aims at designing tractable learning algorithms that use only a heavily compressed representation-or sketch-of massive datasets. Compressive K-Means (CKM) is such a method: it…
K-nearest neighbors (KNN) method is used in many supervised learning classification problems. Potential Energy (PE) method is also developed for classification problems based on its physical metaphor. The energy potential used in the…
