Clustering is one of important data mining techniques known as exploratory data analysis and is being applied in various engineering and scientific fields such as pattern recognition, remote sensing, and so on. The method organizes data by abstracting underlying structure either as a grouping of individuals or as a hierarchy of groups. Weather radar observes atmospheric objects by utilizing reflected signals and stores observed data in corresponding coordinate. To analyze the radar data, it is needed to be separately organized precipitation and non-precipitation echo based on similarities. Thus, this paper studies to apply clustering method to radar data. In addition, in order to solve the problem when precipitation echo locates close to non-precipitation echo, fuzzy logic based clustering method which can consider both distance and other properties such as reflectivity and Doppler velocity is suggested in this paper. By using actual cases, the suggested clustering method derives better results than previous method in near-located precipitation and non-precipitation echo case.

Wireless Sensor Network(WSN) is constituted by low-cost and low-energy, So the most important issue is that the task of the sensor performs successfully by using less energy. In previous WSN, determination of the header and gathering sensor data solution by header give great affection to the performance of network. In this paper, we propose a Hybrid transmission method which considers the direction of data collections. In the proposed hybrid routing method, all of the sensors determine that transmission the data to the sink node directly or indirectly using the head node depend on the location of the head node in the cluster. The performance is compared with the LEACH(Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy) by experimental analysis. The results show that the preposed method can reduce the communication distance and energy consumption by avoiding the detour direction of transmission of the data.

Speaker diarization is the task of determining the speakers for unlabeled data, and DBSCAN (Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise) has been widely used in the field of speaker diarization for its simplicity and computational efficiency. One challenging issue, however, is that if different clusters in non-spatial dataset are adjacent to each other, over-clustering may occur which subsequently degrades the performance of DBSCAN. In this paper, we identify the drawbacks of DBSCAN and propose a new density clustering algorithm based on local distribution property around object. Variable density criterions for local density and spreadness of object are used for effective data clustering. We compare the proposed algorithm to DBSCAN in terms of clustering accuracy. Experimental results confirm that the proposed algorithm exhibits higher accuracy than DBSCAN without over-clustering and confirm that the new approach based on local density and object spreadness is efficient.

Machine learning is one of the most accurate techniques to predict and analyze various phenomena. K-means clustering is a kind of machine learning technique that classifies given data into clusters of similar data. Because it is desirable to perform an analysis based on a lot of data for better performance, K-means clustering can be performed in a model with a server that calculates the centroids of the clusters, and a number of clients that provide data to server. However, this model has the problem that if the clients' data are associated with private information, the server can infringe clients' privacy. In this paper, to solve this problem in a model with a number of clients, we propose a privacy-preserving K-means clustering method that can perform machine learning, concealing private information using homomorphic encryption.

As a way of augmenting constrained resources of mobile devices such as CPU and memory, many works on mobile cloud computing (MCC), where mobile devices utilize remote resources of cloud services or PCs, have been proposed. Typically, in MCC, many nodes with different operating systems and platform and diverse mobile applications or services are located, and a central manager autonomously performs several management tasks to maintain a consistent level of MCC overall quality. However, as there are a larger number of nodes, mobile applications, and services subscribed by the mobile applications and their interactions are extremely increased, a traditional management method of MCC reveals a fundamental problem of degrading its overall performance due to overloaded management tasks to the central manager, i.e. a bottle neck phenomenon. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a clustering-based optimization method to solve performance-related problems on large-scaled MCC and to stabilize its overall quality. With our proposed method, we can ensure to minimize the management overloads and stabilize the quality of MCC in an active and autonomous way.

In recent days, a study of the intrusion detection system collecting and analyzing network data, packet or logs, has been actively performed to response the network threats in computer security fields. In particular, Bayesian network has advantage of the inference functionality which can infer with only some of provided data, so studies of the intrusion system based on Bayesian network have been conducted in the prior. However, there were some limitations to calculate high detection performance because it didn't consider the problems as like complexity of the relation among network packets or continuos input data processing. Therefore, in this paper we proposed two methodologies based on K-menas clustering to improve detection rate by reforming the problems of prior models. At first, it can be improved by sophisticatedly setting interval range of nodes based on K-means clustering. And for the second, it can be improved by calculating robust CPT through applying weighted-leaning based on K-means clustering, too. We conducted the experiments to prove performance of our proposed methodologies by comparing K_WTAN_EM applied to proposed two methodologies with prior models. As the results of experiment, the detection rate of proposed model is higher about 7.78% than existing NBN(Naive Bayesian Network) IDS model, and is higher about 5.24% than TAN(Tree Augmented Bayesian Network) IDS mode and then we could prove excellence our proposing ideas.

The purpose of this paper is to show the clustering measurement way for Korean container terminals by using neural network based SOM(Self Organizing Map). Inputs[Number of Employee, Quay Length, Container Terminal Area, Number of Gantry Crane], and output[TEU] are used for 3 years(2002,2003, and 2004) for 8 Korean container terminals by applying both DEA and SOM models. Empirical main results are as follows: First, the result of DEA analysis shows the possibility for clustering among the terminals and reference terminals except Gamcheon and Gwangyang terminals because of the locational closeness. Second, the result of neural network based SOM clustering analysis shows the positive clustering in clustering positions 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Third, the results between SOM clustering and DEA clustering show the matching ratio about 67%. The main policy implication based on the findings of this study is that the port policy planner of Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs in Korea should introduce the clustering measurement way for the Korean container terminals using neural network based SOM with DEA models for clustering Korean ports and terminals.

GA(Genetic Algorithm)는 NP-Complete 도메인이나 NP-Hard 도메인 내의 문제들에 대해서 최적의 해를 찾기 위해서 많이 사용되어 지는 진화 컴퓨팅 방법 중 하나이다. 모바일 로봇 기술 중 경로계획은 NP-Complete 도메인 영역의 문제 중 하나로 이를 해결하기 위해서 Dijkstra 등의 그래프 이론을 이용한 연구가 많이 연구되었고 최근에는 GA등 진화 컴퓨팅 기법을 이용하여 최적의 경로를 찾는 연구가 많이 수행되고 있다. 그러나 모바일 로봇이 처리해야 될 공간 정보 크기가 증가함에 따라 기존 GA의 개체의 크기가 증가되어 게산 복잡도가 높아져 시간 지연등의 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 이는 모바일 로봇의 잠재적 오류로 발생될 수 있다. 공간 정보에는 동적이 장애물들이 예측 불허하게 나타 날 수 있는데 이것은 전역 경로 계획을 수립할 때 또한 반영되어야 된다. 본 논문에서는 k-means 클러스터링 기법을 이용하여 장애물 밀집도 및 거리 정보를 기반으로 공간정보를 k개의 군집 공간으로 재분류하여 이를 기반으로 N*M개의 그리드 개체 집단을 생성하여 최적 경로계획을 수립하는 GA를 제시한다.

In wireless sensor networks, sensor nodes are deployed in a remote, harsh environment. When the power of the sensor node is consumed in such a network, the sensor nodes become useless together with the deterioration of the quality and performance of the sensor network which may save human life. Although many clustering protocols have been proposed to improve the energy consumption and extend the life of the sensor network, most of the previous studies have shown that the overhead of the cluster head is quite large. It is important to design a routing protocol that minimizes the energy consumption of each node and maximizes the network lifetime because of the power limitations of the sensor nodes and the overhead of the cluster heads. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an efficient clustering scheme that reduces the burden of cluster heads, minimizes energy consumption, and uses algorithms that maximize network lifetime. Simulation results show that the proposed clustering scheme improves the energy balance and prolongs the network life when compared with similar techniques.

To find an optimal solution with genetic algorithm, it is desirable to maintain the population sire as large as possible. In some cases, however, the cost to evaluate each individual is relatively high and it is difficult to maintain large population. To solve this problem we propose a novel genetic algorithm based on fuzzy clustering, which considerably reduces evaluation number without any significant loss of its performance by evaluating only one representative for each cluster. The fitness values of other individuals are estimated from the representative fitness values indirectly. We have used fuzzy c-means algorithm and distributed the fitness using membership matrix, since it is hard to distribute precise fitness values by hard clustering method to individuals which belong to multiple groups. Nine benchmark functions have been investigated and the results are compared to six hard clustering algorithms with Euclidean distance and Pearson correlation coefficients as fitness distribution method.
