Towards a standard methodology to evaluate internal cluster validity indices
The evaluation and comparison of internal cluster validity indices is a critical problem in the clustering area. The methodology used in most of the evaluations assumes that the clustering algorithms work correctly. We propose an alternative methodology that does not make this often false assumption. We compared 7 internal cluster validity indices with both methodologies and concluded that the ...
متن کاملA methodology to evaluate occupational internal exposure to fluorine-18.
The objective of this work is to develop procedures for internal monitoring of (18)F to be applied in cases of possible incorporation of fluoride and (18)FDG, using in vivo and in vitro methods of measurements. The Na I (Tl) 8" x 4" scintillation detector installed at IRD-Whole Body Counter was calibrated for measurements with a whole body anthropomorphic phantom, simulating homogeneous distrib...
متن کاملOnline Cluster Validity Indices for Streaming Data
Cluster analysis is used to explore structure in unlabeled data sets in a wide range of applications. An important part of cluster analysis is validating the quality of computationally obtained clusters. A large number of different internal indices have been developed for validation in the offline setting. However, this concept has not been extended to the online setting. A key challenge is to ...
متن کاملImproving Cluster Method Quality by Validity Indices
Clustering attempts to discover significant groups present in a data set. It is an unsupervised process. It is difficult to define when a clustering result is acceptable. Thus, several clustering validity indices are developed to evaluate the quality of clustering algorithms results. In this paper, we propose to improve the quality of a clustering algorithm called ”CLUSTER” by using a validity ...
متن کاملA New Clustering Algorithm Based On Cluster Validity Indices
This paper addresses two most important issues in cluster analysis. The first issue pertains to the problem of deciding if two objects can be included in the same cluster. We propose a new similarity decision methodology which involves the idea of cluster validity index. The proposed methodology replaces a qualitative cluster recognition process with a quantitative comparison-based decision pro...
