Clustering is a widespread data analysis and data mining technique in many fields of study such as engineering, medicine, biology and the like. The aim of clustering is to collect data points. In this paper, a Cultural Algorithm (CA) is presented to optimize partition with N objects into K clusters. The CA is one of the effective methods for searching into the problem space in order to find a n...

In 2009, Yu et al. proposed a multimod al probability model (MPM) for clustering. This paper makes advanced clustering constructions on the MPM. We first reconstruct most existing clustering algorithms, such as the k-means, fuzzy c-means, possibilistic c-means, mean shift, classification maximum likelihood, and latent class methods, by establishing the relationships between these clustering alg...
