چکیده

The paper proposes a new strategy called HAMIS to improve NPS (Net Promoter Score) of certain companies involved in heavy equipment repair in the US and Canada we call them clients. HAMIS is based on the semantic dendrogram built by using agglomerative clustering strategy and semantic distance between clients. More similar is the knowledge extracted from two clients, more close these clients semantically are to each other. Each company is represented by a dataset which is built from answers to the questionnaire sent to a number of randomly chosen customers using services offered by this company. Before knowledge is extracted from these datasets, each one is extended by merging it with datasets which are close to it in the semantic dendrogram, have higher NPS, and if classifiers extracted from them have higher FS-score. Action rules are extracted from these extended datasets and used for providing recommendations to clients of how to improve their businesses.

Speeding-Up Hierarchical Agglomerative Clustering in Presence of Expensive Metrics

In several contexts and domains, hierarchical agglomerative clustering (HAC) offers best-quality results, but at the price of a high complexity which reduces the size of datasets which can be handled. In some contexts, in particular, computing distances between objects is the most expensive task. In this paper we propose a pruning heuristics aimed at improving performances in these cases, which...

Interpreting and Extending Classical Agglomerative Clustering Algorithms using a Model-Based approach

We present two results which arise from a model-based approach to hierarchical agglomerative clustering. First, we show formally that the common heuristic agglomerative clustering algorithms – Ward’s method, single-link, complete-link, and a variant of group-average – are each equivalent to a hierarchical model-based method. This interpretation gives a theoretical explanation of the empirical b...

2 Review of Agglomerative Hierarchical Clustering Algorithms

Hierarchical methods are well known clustering technique that can be potentially very useful for various data mining tasks. A hierarchical clustering scheme produces a sequence of clusterings in which each clustering is nested into the next clustering in the sequence. Since hierarchical clustering is a greedy search algorithm based on a local search, the merging decision made early in the agglo...

A Comparative Agglomerative Hierarchical Clustering Method to Cluster Implemented Course

There are many clustering methods, such as hierarchical clustering method. Most of the approaches to the clustering of variables encountered in the literature are of hierarchical type. The great majority of hierarchical approaches to the clustering of variables are of agglomerative nature. The agglomerative hierarchical approach to clustering starts with each observation as its own cluster and ...

Document Retrieval using Hierarchical Agglomerative Clustering with Multi-view point Similarity Measure Based on Correlation: Performance Analysis

Clustering is one of the most interesting and important tool for research in data mining and other disciplines. The aim of clustering is to find the relationship among the data objects, and classify them into meaningful subgroups. The effectiveness of clustering algorithms depends on the appropriateness of the similarity measure between the data in which the similarity can be computed. This pap...
