Probabilistic clustering of interval data

Probabilistic clustering of interval data

In this paper we address the problem of clustering interval data, adopting a model-based approach. To this purpose, parametric models for intervalvalued variables are used which consider configurations for the variancecovariance matrix that take the nature of the interval data directly into account. Results, both on synthetic and empirical data, clearly show the well-founding of the proposed ap...

the clustering and classification data mining techniques in insurance fraud detection:the case of iranian car insurance

با توجه به گسترش روز افزون تقلب در حوزه بیمه به خصوص در بخش بیمه اتومبیل و تبعات منفی آن برای شرکت های بیمه، به کارگیری روش های مناسب و کارآمد به منظور شناسایی و کشف تقلب در این حوزه امری ضروری است. درک الگوی موجود در داده های مربوط به مطالبات گزارش شده گذشته می تواند در کشف واقعی یا غیرواقعی بودن ادعای خسارت، مفید باشد. یکی از متداول ترین و پرکاربردترین راه های کشف الگوی داده ها استفاده از ر...

Clustering Interval-valued Data Using an Overlapped Interval Divergence

As a common problem in data clustering applications, how to identify a suitable proximity measure between data instances is still an open problem. Especially when interval-valued data is becoming more and more popular, it is expected to have a suitable distance for intervals. Existing distance measures only consider the lower and upper bounds of intervals, but overlook the overlapped area betwe...

Fuzzy Kohonen clustering networks for interval data

The Fuzzy Kohonen Clustering Network combines the idea of fuzzy membership values for learning rates. It is a kind of self-organizing fuzzy neural network that can show great superiority in processing the ambiguity and the uncertainty of data sets or images. Symbolic data analysis provides suitable tools for managing aggregated data described by intervals. This paper introduces Fuzzy Kohonen Cl...
