Entropy-based Consensus for Distributed Data Clustering
The increasingly larger scale of available data and the more restrictive concerns on their privacy are some of the challenging aspects of data mining today. In this paper, Entropy-based Consensus on Cluster Centers (EC3) is introduced for clustering in distributed systems with a consideration for confidentiality of data; i.e. it is the negotiations among local cluster centers that are used in t...
متن کاملIntegrating Microarray Data by Consensus Clustering
With the exploding volume of microarray experiments comes increasing interest in mining repositories of such data. Meaningfully combining results from varied experiments on an equal basis is a challenging task. Here we propose a general method for integrating heterogeneous data sets based on the consensus clustering formalism. Our method analyzes source-specific clusterings and identifies a con...
متن کاملCritical limitations of consensus clustering in class discovery
Consensus clustering (CC) has been adopted for unsupervised class discovery in many genomic studies. It calculates how frequently two samples are grouped together in repeated clustering runs, and uses the resulting pairwise "consensus rates" for visual demonstration that clusters exist, for comparing cluster stability, and for estimating the optimal cluster number (K). However, the sensitivity ...
متن کاملConsensus clustering of gene expression microarray data using genetic algorithms
This work presents a new consensus clustering method for gene expression microarray data based on a genetic algorithm. Using two datasets – DA and DB – as input, the genetic algorithm examines putative partitions for the samples in DA, selecting biomarkers that support such partitions. The biomarkers are then used to build a classifier which is used in DB to determine its samples classes. The g...
متن کاملGraph-based consensus clustering for class discovery from gene expression data
MOTIVATION Consensus clustering, also known as cluster ensemble, is one of the important techniques for microarray data analysis, and is particularly useful for class discovery from microarray data. Compared with traditional clustering algorithms, consensus clustering approaches have the ability to integrate multiple partitions from different cluster solutions to improve the robustness, stabili...
