Effective item identifiers (IDs) are an important component for recommender systems (RecSys) in practice, and are commonly adopted in many use cases such as retrieval and ranking. IDs can encode collaborative filtering signals within…

Correlation clustering is a flexible framework for partitioning data based solely on pairwise similarity or dissimilarity information, without requiring the number of clusters as input. However, in many practical scenarios, these pairwise…

Economic policy and research rely on the correct evaluation of the billions of high-frequency data points that we collect every day. Consistent clustering algorithms, like DBSCAN, allow us to make sense of the data in a useful way. However,…

Novel class discovery (NCD) aims to infer novel categories in an unlabeled dataset leveraging prior knowledge of a labeled set comprising disjoint but related classes. Existing research focuses primarily on utilizing the labeled set at the…

Most research on predicting community evolution focuses on changes in the states of communities. Instead, we focus on individual nodes and define the novel problem of predicting whether a specific node stays in the same cluster, moves to…

This paper studies inference in cluster randomized trials where treatment status is determined according to a "matched pairs" design. Here, by a cluster randomized experiment, we mean one in which treatment is assigned at the level of the…

The information bottleneck (IB) approach to clustering takes a joint distribution $P\!\left(X,Y\right)$ and maps the data $X$ to cluster labels $T$ which retain maximal information about $Y$ (Tishby et al., 1999). This objective results in…

Image clustering is one of the crucial techniques in multimedia analytics and knowledge discovery. Recently, the Deep clustering method (DC), characterized by its ability to perform feature learning and cluster assignment jointly, surpasses…

In the Subspace Clustering with Missing Data (SCMD) problem, we are given a collection of n partially observed d-dimensional vectors. The data points are assumed to be concentrated near a union of low-dimensional subspaces. The goal of SCMD…

Data clustering is the process of identifying natural groupings or clusters within multidimensional data based on some similarity measure. Clustering is a fundamental process in many different disciplines. Hence, researchers from different…

In machine learning and data mining, Cluster analysis is one of the most widely used unsupervised learning technique. Philosophy of this algorithm is to find similar data items and group them together based on any distance function in…

Clustering is a well-known unsupervised machine learning approach capable of automatically grouping discrete sets of instances with similar characteristics. Constrained clustering is a semi-supervised extension to this process that can be…

Symbolic Data Analysis is based on special descriptions of data - symbolic objects (SO). Such descriptions preserve more detailed information about units and their clusters than the usual representations with mean values. A special kind of…

In online clustering problems, there is often a large amount of uncertainty over possible cluster assignments that cannot be resolved until more data are observed. This difficulty is compounded when clusters follow complex distributions, as…

The description of complex configuration is a difficult issue. We present a powerful technique for cluster identification and characterization. The scheme is designed to treat with and analyze the experimental and/or simulation data from…

Graph clustering has been studied extensively on both plain graphs and attributed graphs. However, all these methods need to partition the whole graph to find cluster structures. Sometimes, based on domain knowledge, people may have…

We introduce a new clustering method for the classification of functional data sets by their probabilistic law, that is, a procedure that aims to assign data sets to the same cluster if and only if the data were generated with the same…

Clustering is a fundamental problem, aiming to partition a set of elements, like agents or data points, into clusters such that elements in the same cluster are closer to each other than to those in other clusters. In this paper, we present…

International Classification of Diseases (ICD) is a global medical classification system which provides unique codes for diagnoses and procedures appropriate to a patient's clinical record. However, manual coding by human coders is…

In empirical work it is common to estimate parameters of models and report associated standard errors that account for "clustering" of units, where clusters are defined by factors such as geography. Clustering adjustments are typically…
