On the Use of Variable-Size Fuzzy Clustering for Classification
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hard c-means can be used for building classifiers in supervised machine learning. For example, in a n-class problem, c clusters are built for each of the classes. This results into n · c centroids. Then, new examples can be classified according to the nearest centroid. In this work we consider the problem of building classifiers using fuzzy clustering techniques. In particular, we consider the use of fuzzy c-means, as well as some variations. Namely, fuzzy c-means with variable size and entropy based fuzzy c-means.

متن کاملOil Reservoirs Classification Using Fuzzy Clustering (RESEARCH NOTE)
Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) is a well-known method to increase oil production from oil reservoirs. Applying EOR to a new reservoir is a costly and time consuming process. Incorporating available knowledge of oil reservoirs in the EOR process eliminates these costs and saves operational time and work. This work presents a universal method to apply EOR to reservoirs based on the available data by...

In this paper, a new hybrid methodology is introduced to design a cost-sensitive fuzzy rule-based classification system. A novel cost metric is proposed based on the combination of three different concepts: Entropy, Gini index and DKM criterion. In order to calculate the effective cost of patterns, a hybrid of fuzzy c-means clustering and particle swarm optimization algorithm is utilized. This ...
