Modified Conn-Index for the evaluation of fuzzy clusterings
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose an extension of the Conn-Index to evaluate fuzzy cluster solutions obtained from fuzzy prototype vector quantization, whereas the original Conn-Index was designed for crisp vector quantization models. The fuzzy index explicitly takes the fuzzy assignments resulting from fuzzy vector quantization into account. This avoids the information loss which would occur if the original crisp index is applied to fuzzy solutions.

Comparing hard and overlapping clusterings
Similarity measures for comparing clusterings is an important component, e.g., of evaluating clustering algorithms, for consensus clustering, and for clustering stability assessment. These measures have been studied for over 40 years in the domain of exclusive hard clusterings (exhaustive and mutually exclusive object sets). In the past years, the literature has proposed measures to handle more...
متن کاملWeighted Ensemble Clustering for Increasing the Accuracy of the Final Clustering
Clustering algorithms are highly dependent on different factors such as the number of clusters, the specific clustering algorithm, and the used distance measure. Inspired from ensemble classification, one approach to reduce the effect of these factors on the final clustering is ensemble clustering. Since weighting the base classifiers has been a successful idea in ensemble classification, in th...
متن کاملClustering Moving Objects via Medoid Clusterings
Modern geographic information systems do not only have to handle static information but also dynamically moving objects. Clustering algorithms for these moving objects provide new and helpful information, e.g. jam detection is possible by means of these algorithms. One of the main problems of these clustering algorithms is that only uncertain positional information of the moving objects is avai...

Clustering is the process of division of a dataset into subsets that are called clusters, so that objects within a cluster are similar to each other and different from objects of the other clusters. So far, a lot of algorithms in different approaches have been created for the clustering. An effective choice (can combine) two or more of these algorithms for solving the clustering problem. Ensemb...
متن کاملAGILITY EVALUATION IN PUBLIC SECTOR USING FUZZY LOGIC
Agility metrics are difficult to define in general, mainly due to the multidimensionality and vagueness of the concept of agility itself. In this paper, a knowledge-based framework is proposed for the measurement and assessment of public sector agility using the A.T.Kearney model. Fuzzy logic provides a useful tool for dealing with decisions in which the phenomena are imprecise and vague. In th...
