An Ensemble Method for Validation of Cluster Analysis
نویسنده
چکیده
Clustering is more subjective work than classification and regression. Though classification and regression have many general validation measures, clustering has few validation measures. Also, it is difficult to develop general measure of cluster validation. So, many evaluation measures have been published for cluster validation. In this paper, we propose an ensemble method of validation for cluster analysis. We use voting approach to some validation measures of cluster analysis. To verify our improved performance, we make experiments by some objective data sets from UCI machine learning repository.

A new ensemble clustering method based on fuzzy cmeans clustering while maintaining diversity in ensemble
An ensemble clustering has been considered as one of the research approaches in data mining, pattern recognition, machine learning and artificial intelligence over the last decade. In clustering, the combination first produces several bases clustering, and then, for their aggregation, a function is used to create a final cluster that is as similar as possible to all the cluster bundles. The inp...

In this work, a hierarchical ensemble of projected clustering algorithm for high-dimensional data is proposed. The basic concept of the algorithm is based on the active learning method (ALM) which is a fuzzy learning scheme, inspired by some behavioral features of human brain functionality. High-dimensional unsupervised active learning method (HUALM) is a clustering algorithm which blurs the da...
متن کاملA Framework for Cluster Ensemble Based on a Max Metric as Cluster Evaluator
A new criterion for clusters validation is proposed in the paper and based on the new cluster validation criterion a clustering ensemble framework is proposed. The main idea behind the framework is to extract the most stable clusters in terms of the defined criteria. To combine a set of partitions into one consensus partition, hierarchical clustering algorithms can be employed where first the E...
متن کاملA New Criterion for Clusters Validation
In this paper a new criterion for clusters validation is proposed. This new cluster validation criterion is used to approximate the goodness of a cluster. The clusters which satisfy a threshold of this measure are selected to participate in clustering ensemble. For combining the chosen clusters, a coassociation based consensus function is applied. Since the Evidence Accumulation Clustering meth...
