Many algorithms for approximate nearest neighbor search in high-dimensional spaces partition the data into clusters. At query time, in order to avoid exhaustive search, an index selects the few (or a single) clusters nearest to the query…

This paper proposes a variant of the normalized cut algorithm for spectral clustering. Although the normalized cut algorithm applies the K-means algorithm to the eigenvectors of a normalized graph Laplacian for finding clusters, our…

Clustering is a fundamental technique in data analysis, with the $k$-means being one of the widely studied objectives due to its simplicity and broad applicability. In many practical scenarios, data points come with associated weights that…

We consider the Euclidean $k$-means clustering problem in a dynamic setting, where we have to explicitly maintain a solution (a set of $k$ centers) $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ subject to point insertions/deletions in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We…

The aim of the k-means is to minimize squared sum of Euclidean distance from the mean (SSEDM) of each cluster. The k-means can effectively optimize this function, but it is too sensitive for initial centers (seeds). This paper proposed a…

In this work we propose a single rounding algorithm for the fractional solutions of the standard LP relaxation for $k$-clustering. As a starting point, we obtain an iterative rounding $(\frac{3^p + 1}{2})$-Lagrangian Multiplier-Perserving…

K-means is one of the most widely used algorithms for clustering in Data Mining applications, which attempts to minimize the sum of the square of the Euclidean distance of the points in the clusters from the respective means of the…

This paper introduces a novel K-means clustering algorithm, an advancement on the conventional Big-means methodology. The proposed method efficiently integrates parallel processing, stochastic sampling, and competitive optimization to…

Distributed Computation has been a recent trend in engineering research. Parallel Computation is widely used in different areas of Data Mining, Image Processing, Simulating Models, Aerodynamics and so forth. One of the major usage of…

K-means (MacQueen, 1967) [1] is one of the simplest unsupervised learning algorithms that solve the well-known clustering problem. The procedure follows a simple and easy way to classify a given data set to a predefined, say K number of…

K-medoids clustering is a popular variant of k-means clustering and widely used in pattern recognition and machine learning. A main drawback of k-medoids clustering is that an improper initialization can cause it to get trapped in local…

We propose two probability-like measures of individual cluster-membership certainty which can be applied to a hard partition of the sample such as that obtained from the Partitioning Around Medoids (PAM) algorithm, hierarchical clustering…

Clustering with fast algorithms large samples of high dimensional data is an important challenge in computational statistics. Borrowing ideas from MacQueen (1967) who introduced a sequential version of the $k$-means algorithm, a new class…

K-means is an effective clustering technique used to separate similar data into groups based on initial centroids of clusters. In this paper, Normalization based K-means clustering algorithm(N-K means) is proposed. Proposed N-K means…

In recent years it has become popular to study machine learning problems in a setting of ordinal distance information rather than numerical distance measurements. By ordinal distance information we refer to binary answers to distance…

Hierarchical and k-medoids clustering are deterministic clustering algorithms based on pairwise distances. Using these same pairwise distances, we propose a novel stochastic clustering method based on random partition distributions. We call…

The popular K-means clustering algorithm potentially suffers from a major weakness for further analysis or interpretation. Some cluster may have disproportionately more (or fewer) points from one of the subpopulations in terms of some…

Clustering is one of the most important tools for analysis of large datasets, and perhaps the most popular clustering algorithm is Lloyd's algorithm for $k$-means. This algorithm takes $n$ vectors $V=[v_1,\dots,v_n]\in\mathbb{R}^{d\times…

Clustering is a hard discrete optimization problem. Nonconvex approaches such as low-rank semidefinite programming (SDP) have recently demonstrated promising statistical and local algorithmic guarantees for cluster recovery. Due to the…

Spectral clustering is a powerful unsupervised machine learning algorithm for clustering data with non convex or nested structures. With roots in graph theory, it uses the spectral properties of the Laplacian matrix to project the data in a…
