There is no, nor will there ever be, single best clustering algorithm. Nevertheless, we would still like to be able to distinguish between methods that work well on certain task types and those that systematically underperform. Clustering…

In this paper a novel possibilistic c-means clustering algorithm, called Adaptive Possibilistic c-means, is presented. Its main feature is that {\it all} its parameters, after their initialization, are properly adapted during its execution.…

Topological data analysis is a relatively new branch of machine learning that excels in studying high dimensional data, and is theoretically known to be robust against noise. Meanwhile, data objects with mixed numeric and categorical…

Recently, there has been substantial interest in clustering research that takes a beyond worst-case approach to the analysis of algorithms. The typical idea is to design a clustering algorithm that outputs a near-optimal solution, provided…

Clustering is an important part of many modern data analysis pipelines, including network analysis and data retrieval. There are many different clustering algorithms developed by various communities, and it is often not clear which…

Micro-panel data are collected and analysed in many research and industry areas. Cluster analysis of micro-panel data is an unsupervised learning exploratory method identifying subgroup clusters in a data set which include homogeneous…

The non-stationary nature of data streams strongly challenges traditional machine learning techniques. Although some solutions have been proposed to extend traditional machine learning techniques for handling data streams, these approaches…

Clustering is an unsupervised machine learning method grouping data samples into clusters of similar objects. In practice, clustering has been used in numerous applications such as banking customers profiling, document retrieval, image…

Spectral clustering approaches have led to well-accepted algorithms for finding accurate clusters in a given dataset. However, their application to large-scale datasets has been hindered by computational complexity of eigenvalue…

In unsupervised learning, identifying an effective clustering algorithm for a given tabular dataset remains a fundamental challenge. We introduce ClustRecNet, a novel end-to-end deep learning framework that recommends a suitable clustering…

Clustering performs an essential role in many real world applications, such as market research, pattern recognition, data analysis, and image processing. However, due to the high dimensionality of the input feature values, the data being…

Various methods have been developed to combine inference across multiple sets of results for unsupervised clustering, within the ensemble clustering literature. The approach of reporting results from one `best' model out of several…

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…

We introduce a new method for performing clustering with the aim of fitting clusters with different scatters and weights. It is designed by allowing to handle a proportion $\alpha$ of contaminating data to guarantee the robustness of the…

Measuring similarity between two objects is the core operation in existing clustering algorithms in grouping similar objects into clusters. This paper introduces a new similarity measure called point-set kernel which computes the similarity…

We present a new clustering method in the form of a single clustering equation that is able to directly discover groupings in the data. The main proposition is that the first neighbor of each sample is all one needs to discover large chains…

This paper illustrates a further application of topological data analysis to the study of self-organising models for chemical and biological systems. In particular, we investigate whether topological summaries can capture the parameter…

Mean shift is a simple interactive procedure that gradually shifts data points towards the mode which denotes the highest density of data points in the region. Mean shift algorithms have been effectively used for data denoising, mode…

In this paper, we propose a simple algorithm to cluster nonnegative data lying in disjoint subspaces. We analyze its performance in relation to a certain measure of correlation between said subspaces. We use our clustering algorithm to…

We address the problem of data clustering by introducing an unsupervised, parameter free approach based on maximum likelihood principle. Starting from the observation that data sets belonging to the same cluster share a common information,…
