Online Cluster Approximation via Inequality
نویسنده
چکیده
Given an example-feature set, representing the information context present in a dataset, is it possible to reconstruct the information context in the form of clusters to a certain degree of compromise, if the examples are processed randomly without repetition in a sequential online manner? A general transductive inductive learning strategy which uses constraint based multivariate Chebyshev inequality is proposed. Theoretical convergence in the reconstruction error to a finite value with increasing number of (a) processed examples and (b) generated clusters, respectively, is shown. Upper bounds for these error rates are also proved. Nonparametric estimates of these error from a sample of random sequences of example set, empirically point to a stable number of clusters.

Transductive-Inductive Cluster Approximation Via Multivariate Chebyshev Inequality
Approximating adequate number of clusters in multidimensional data is an open area of research, given a level of compromise made on the quality of acceptable results. The manuscript addresses the issue by formulating a transductive inductive learning algorithm which uses multivariate Chebyshev inequality. Considering clustering problem in imaging, theoretical proofs for a particular level of co...
متن کاملSpeeding up k-means by approximating Euclidean distances via block vectors
This paper introduces a new method to approximate Euclidean distances between points using block vectors in combination with the Hölder inequality. By defining lower bounds based on the proposed approximation, cluster algorithms can be considerably accelerated without loss of quality. In extensive experiments, we show a considerable reduction in terms of computational time in comparison to stan...
متن کاملDeterministic Approximation Algorithms for Ranking and Clustering Problems
We give deterministic versions of randomized approximation algorithms for several ranking and clustering problems that were proposed by Ailon, Charikar and Newman[1]. We show that under a reasonable extension of the triangle inequality in clustering problems, we can resolve Ailon et al.’s open question whether there is an approximation algorithm for weighted correlation clustering with weights ...
متن کاملBenson's algorithm for nonconvex multiobjective problems via nonsmooth Wolfe duality
In this paper, we propose an algorithm to obtain an approximation set of the (weakly) nondominated points of nonsmooth multiobjective optimization problems with equality and inequality constraints. We use an extension of the Wolfe duality to construct the separating hyperplane in Benson's outer algorithm for multiobjective programming problems with subdifferentiable functions. We also fo...
