This paper describes a hybrid approach of Fuzzy C-means clustering and Genetic Algorithm (GA) is proposed that provides better accuracy & increases the intrusion detection rate. This approach provides better accuracy of detection as compared to K-means and FCM Clustering. With this proposed approach intrusion detection rate is improved considerably.A brief overview of a hybrid approach of genet...

Text clustering and classification are two main tasks of text mining. Feature selection plays the key role in the quality of the clustering and classification results. Although word-based features such as term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF) vectors have been widely used in different applications, their shortcoming in capturing semantic concepts of text motivated researches to use...

Query clustering helps users frame an optimum query to obtain relevant documents. The contentbased approach to query clustering has been criticized since queries are usually very short and consist of a wide variety of keywords, making this method ineffective in finding clusters. Clustering based on similar search results URLs has also performed inadequately due to the large number of distinct U...

Manifold clustering, which regards clusters as groups of points around compact manifolds, has been realized as a promising generalization of traditional clustering. A number of linear or nonlinear manifold clustering approaches have been developed recently. Although they have attained better performances than traditional clustering methods in many scenarios, most of these approaches suffer from...

Clustering ensembles has been recently recognized as an emerging approach to provide more robust solutions to the data clustering problem. Current methods of clustering ensembles typically fall into instance-based, cluster-based, or hybrid approaches; however, most of such methods fail in discriminating among the various clusterings that participate to the ensemble. In this paper, we address th...

  The clustering problem under the criterion of minimum sum of squares is a non-convex and non-linear program, which possesses many locally optimal values, resulting that its solution often falls into these trap and therefore cannot converge to global optima solution. In this paper, an efficient hybrid optimization algorithm is developed for solving this problem, called Tabu-KM. It gathers the ...

UCTTP is a NP-hard problem, which must be performed for each semester frequently. The major technique in the presented approach would be analyzing data to resolve uncertainties of lecturers’ preferences and constraints within a department in order to obtain a ranking for each lecturer based on their requirements within a department where it is attempted to increase their satisfaction and develo...
