Traditional clustering methods are usually based on the bag-of-words (BOW) model. A disadvantage of the BOW model is that it ignores the semantic relationship among terms in the data set. To resolve this problem, ontology or matrix factorization approaches are usually used. However, a major problem of the ontology approach is that it is usually difficult to find a comprehensive ontology that can cover all the concepts mentioned in a collection. This paper proposes a new document clustering method using semantic features and fuzzy relations for solving the problems of ontology and matrix factorization approaches. The proposed method can improve the quality of document clustering because the clustered documents use fuzzy relation values between semantic features and terms to distinguish clearly among dissimilar documents in clusters. The selected cluster label terms can represent the inherent structure of a document set better by using semantic features based on non-negative matrix factorization, which is used in document clustering. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves better performance than other document clustering methods.

협력 필터링 기반의 추천 시스템에 내재된 확장성 문제는 지난 수십년간 관련 연구의 이슈가 되어 왔다. 클러스터링은 이 문제를 해결하는 유명한 기술인데 낮은 성능으로 인하여 활발히 연구되어 오진 않았다. 본 논문에서는 협력 필터링 시스템의 고질적인 단점인 확장성 문제를 극복하기 위하여 클러스터링 기법을 채택하였다. 또한 클러스터링을 적용함으로 인해 초래되는 성능저하 문제를 개선하기 위해, 두 가지 전략을 사용하였는데, 첫째는 퍼지 클러스터링이며, 둘째는 영화 장르에 대한 사용자 선호도에 기반한 유사도 측정 방법을 제안하고 이를 적용하였다. 본 연구에서의 제안 방법을 기존의 여러 관련 방법들과 비교 실험을 통해 다양한 주요 성능 척도에 의거하여 평가하였는데, 실험 결과 제안 방법은 예측과 순위 정확도 측면에서 더 우수한 성능을 보였고, 추천 정확도 측면에서는 실험 대상 중 최상의 방법과 대등한 성능을 나타냈다.

We study clustering algorithm for sequences of categorical values. Clustering is a data mining problem that has received significant attention by the database community. Traditional clustering algorlthms deal with numerical or categorical data points. However, there exist many important databases that store categorical data sequences. In this paper we introduce new similarity measure and develope a hierarchical clustering algorithm. An experimental section shows performance of the proposed approach.

As an alternative to the k-means clustering the k-spatial medians clustering has many good points because of advantages of spatial median. However, it has not been used a lot since it needs heavy computation. If the number of objects and the number of variables are large the computation time problem is getting serious. In this study we propose fast algorithm for the k-spatial medians clustering. Practical applicability of the algorithm is shown with some numerical studies.

In this paper, we use non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) to refine the document clustering results. NMF is a dimensional reduction method and effective for document clustering, because a term-document matrix is high-dimensional and sparse. The initial matrix of the NMF algorithm is regarded as a clustering result, therefore we can use NMF as a refinement method. First we perform min-max cut (Mcut), which is a powerful spectral clustering method, and then refine the result via NMF. Finally we should obtain an accurate clustering result. However, NMF often fails to improve the given clustering result. To overcome this problem, we use the Mcut object function to stop the iteration of NMF.

In this study, we developed a heuristic algorithm to get better efficiency of clustering than conventional algorithms. Conventional clustering algorithm had lower efficiency of clustering as there were no solid method for selecting initial center of cluster and as they had difficulty in search solution for clustering. EMC(Expanded Moving Center) heuristic algorithm was suggested to clear the problem of low efficiency in clustering. We developed algorithm to select initial center of cluster and search solution systematically in clustering. Experiments of clustering are performed to evaluate performance of EMC heuristic algorithm. Squared-error of EMC heuristic algorithm showed better performance for real case study and improved greatly with increase of cluster number than the other ones.

본 논문에서는 수치적 데이터를 이용하여 규칙을 생성하는 시스템에 대해 순차적인 클러스터링 방법을 제안한다. 단일 클러스터링 기법은 방대하고 복잡한 공간 내에서는 원하는 결과를 얻지 못할 수 있다. 이런 문제점을 해결하기 위해 제안된 방법은 서로 다른 클러스터링 기법을 순차적으로 수행하여 장점들은 활용하고 단점들은 보안하는 형태를 제안하였다. Mountain 클러스터링과 Chen 클러스터링을 이용하여 non-parametric 공간에서 자율적으로 클러스터를 구성하였고, global 공간과 local 공간으로 역할을 분담하여 클러스터를 추정한다. 추정된 클러스터들은 신경회로망이나 퍼지 시스템과 같은 지능 시스템의 구조와 초기 파라미터 결정에 활용될 수 있으며, 확장하여 헬스케어와 의료 분야에서의 결정 제공 시스템의 학습에 도움을 줄 수 있다. 제안된 방법을 유용성을 시뮬레이션을 통해 보이고자 한다.

Since time series clustering is performed without prior information, it is used for exploratory data analysis. In particular, clusters of time series with similar shapes can be used in various fields, such as business, medicine, finance, and communications. However, existing time series clustering algorithms have a problem in that time series with different shapes are included in the clusters. The reason for such a problem is that the existing algorithms do not consider the limitations on the size of the generated clusters, and use a dimension reduction method in which the information loss is large. In this paper, we propose a method to alleviate the disadvantages of existing methods and to find a better quality of cluster containing similarly shaped time series. In the data preprocessing step, we normalize the time series using z-transformation. Then, we use piecewise aggregate approximation (PAA) to reduce the dimension of the time series. In the clustering step, we use density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN) to create a precluster. We then use a modified K-means algorithm to refine the preclusters containing differently shaped time series into subclusters containing only similarly shaped time series. In our experiments, our method showed better results than the existing method.

In clustering-based approaches, cluster heads closer to the sink are usually burdened with much more relay traffic and thus, tend to die early. To address this problem, distance-aware clustering approaches, such as energy-efficient unequal clustering (EEUC), that adjust the cluster size according to the distance between the sink and each cluster head have been proposed. However, the network lifetime of such approaches is highly dependent on the distribution of the sensor nodes, because, in randomly distributed sensor networks, the approaches do not guarantee that the cluster energy consumption will be proportional to the cluster size. To address this problem, we propose a novel approach called CACD (Clustering Algorithm Considering node Distribution), which is not only distance-aware but also node density-aware approach. In CACD, clusters are allowed to have limited member nodes, which are determined by the distance between the sink and the cluster head. Simulation results show that CACD is 20%-50% more energy-efficient than previous work under various operational conditions considering the network lifetime.
