Clustering is a fundamental problem in many areas, which aims to partition a given data set into groups based on some distance measure, such that the data points in the same group are similar while that in different groups are dissimilar.…

The method of Hol\'y, Sokol and \v{C}ern\'y (Applied Soft Computing, 2017, Vol. 60, p. 752-762) clusters objects based on their incidence in a large number of given sets. The idea is to minimize the occurrence of multiple objects from the…

Image segmentation, the process of partitioning an image into meaningful regions, plays a pivotal role in computer vision and medical imaging applications. Unsupervised segmentation, particularly in the absence of labeled data, remains a…

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…

Pixel intensity is a widely used feature for clustering and segmentation algorithms, the resulting segmentation using only intensity values might suffer from noises and lack of spatial context information. Wavelet transform is often used…

State-of-the-art clustering algorithms use heuristics to partition the feature space and provide little insight into the rationale for cluster membership, limiting their interpretability. In healthcare applications, the latter poses a…

The quality of the hatching process influences the success of the hatch rate besides the inherent egg factors. Eliminating infertile or dead eggs and monitoring embryonic growth are very important factors in efficient hatchery practices.…

Due to their conceptual simplicity, k-means algorithm variants have been extensively used for unsupervised cluster analysis. However, one main shortcoming of these algorithms is that they essentially fit a mixture of identical spherical…

Clustering samples according to an effective metric and/or vector space representation is a challenging unsupervised learning task with a wide spectrum of applications. Among several clustering algorithms, k-means and its kernelized version…

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…

Using a trimming approach, we investigate a k-means type method based on Bregman divergences for clustering data possibly corrupted with clutter noise. The main interest of Bregman divergences is that the standard Lloyd algorithm adapts to…

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…

Image segmentation is a fundamental step for the interpretation of Remote Sensing Images. Clustering or segmentation methods usually precede the classification task and are used as support tools for manual labeling. The most common…

Image co-segmentation is important for its advantage of alleviating the ill-pose nature of image segmentation through exploring the correlation between related images. Many automatic image co-segmentation algorithms have been developed in…

Segmentation of nuclei regions from histological images is an important task for automated computer-aided analysis of histological images, particularly in the presence of impermissible color variation in the color appearance of stained…

This paper addresses the limitations of conventional vector quantization algorithms, particularly K-Means and its variant K-Means++, and investigates the Stochastic Quantization (SQ) algorithm as a scalable alternative for high-dimensional…

We analyze the clustering problem through a flexible probabilistic model that aims to identify an optimal partition on the sample X 1 , ..., X n. We perform exact clustering with high probability using a convex semidefinite estimator that…

Segmentation of the pixels corresponding to human skin is an essential first step in multiple applications ranging from surveillance to heart-rate estimation from remote-photoplethysmography. However, the existing literature considers the…

This paper presents a novel selective constraint propagation method for constrained image segmentation. In the literature, many pairwise constraint propagation methods have been developed to exploit pairwise constraints for cluster…

Superpixels are widely used in computer vision applications. Nevertheless, decomposition methods may still fail to efficiently cluster image pixels according to their local texture. In this paper, we propose a new Nearest Neighbor-based…
