K-means is one of the most widely used clustering algorithms in various disciplines, especially for large datasets. However the method is known to be highly sensitive to initial seed selection of cluster centers. K-means++ has been proposed to overcome this problem and has been shown to have better accuracy and computational efficiency than k-means. In many clustering problems though –such as w...

The growth of AVL (Automatic Vehicle Location) systems leads to huge amount of data about different parts of bus fleet (buses, stations, passenger, etc.) which is very useful to improve bus fleet efficiency. In addition, by processing fleet and passengers’ historical data it is possible to detect passenger’s behavioral patterns in different parts of the day and to use it in order to improve fle...

In this paper, an intelligent system for web based eLearning is proposed which analyzes students’ knowledge capacity by applying clustering technique. This system uses fuzzy logic and k-means clustering algorithm to arrange the documents according to the level of their performance. Moreover, a new domain ontology alignment technique is proposed that uses contextual information of the knowledge ...

The K-means algorithm is one of the most often used clustering techniques. However, when it comes to discovering clusters in informetric data sets that consist of non-increasingly ordered vectors of not necessarily conforming lengths, such a method cannot be applied directly. Hence, in this paper, we propose a K-means-like algorithm to determine groups of producers that are similar not only wit...

Social networks are generators of large amount of data produced by users, who are not limited with respect to the content of the information they exchange. The data generated can be a good indicator of trends and topic preferences among users. In our paper we focus on analyzing and representing hashtags by the corpus in which they appear. We cluster a large set of hashtags using K-means on map ...
