Agglomerative Hierarchical Clustering for Data with Tolerance
San Jose, California
November 02-November 04
ISBN: 0-7695-3032-X
This paper presents new clustering algorithms which are based on agglomerative hierarchical clustering (AHC) with centroid method. The algorithms can handle with data with tolerance of which the concept includes some errors, ranges, or missing values in data. First, the tolerance is in- troduced into optimization problems of clustering. Second, an objective function is introduced for calculating the cen- troid of cluster and the problem is solved using Kuhn-Tucker conditions. Next, new algorithms are constructed based on the solution of the problem. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms in this paper is verified through some numeric examples for the artificial data.
