An Evolutionary Data Clustering Algorithm

Data mining is the process of deriving knowledge from data. The data clustering is a classical activity in data mining. Clustering is the process of grouping objects together in such a way that the objects belonging to the same group are similar and those belonging to different groups are dissimilar. In this paper we propose a method to carry out data clustering using Evolutionary Computation. We use evolutionary characteristics to define the data clustering procedure. In addition, we present an example of application of our approach, the definition of healthcare centers for a given Venezuelan region Key-Words: Data Mining, Data Clustering, Evolutionary Computation
