THE USED ALGORITHMS IN PARTITIONAL CLUSTERING

What is Clustering ? A process of clustering is classification of the objects which are

similar among them, and organizing of data into groups.

The techniques for Clustering are among the unsupervised methods.

What is Partitional Clustering ? The Partitional Clustering Algorithms separate the similar

objects to the Clusters.

The Partitional Clustering Algorithms are succesful to determine center based Cluster.

The Partitional Clustering Algorithms divide n objects to k cluster by using k parameter.

The techniques of the Partitional Clustering start with a randomly chosen clustering and then optimize the clustering according to some accuracy measurement.

The Used Algorithms in Partitional Clustering

K-MEANS ALGORITHM

K-MEANS algorithm is introduced as one of the simplest unsupervised learning algorithms that resolve the clustering problems by J.B. MacQueen in 1967 (MacQueen, 1967).

K-MEANS algorithm allows that one of the data belong to only a cluster.

Therefore, this algorithm is a definite clustering algorithm.

Given the N-sample of the clusters in the N-dimensional space.

K-MEANS ALGORITHM

This space is separated, {C1,C2,…,Ck} the K clusters. The vector mean (Mk) of the Ck cluster is given (Kantardzic, 2003) :

The square-error formula for the Ck is given :

K-MEANS ALGORITHM The square-error formula for the Ck is called the changing in

cluster. The square-error for all the clusters is the sum of the changing

in clusters.

K-MEDOIDS ALGORITHM The aim of the K-MEDOIDS algorithm is to find the K

representative objects (Kaufman and Rousseeuw, 1987). Each cluster in K-MEDOIDS algorithm is represented by

the object in cluster. K-MEANS algorithm determine the clusters by the mean

process. However, K-MEDOIDS algorithm find the cluster by using mid-point.

FUZZY C-MEANS ALGORITHM Fuzzy C-MEANS algorithm is the best known and widely

used a method. Fuzzy C-MEANS algorithm is introduced by DUNN in 1973

and improved by BEZDEK in 1981 [Höppner vd, 2000]. Fuzzy C-MEANS lets that objects are belonging to two and

more cluster. The total value of the membership of a data for all the

classes is equal to one. However, the value of the memebership of the cluster that

contain this object is high than other clusters. This Algorithm is used the least squares method [Höppner

vd, 2000].

Results

K-MEDOIDS is the best algorithm according to K-MEANS and FUZZY C-MEANS.

However, K-MEDOIDS algorithm is suitable for small datasets.

K-MEANS algorithm is the best appropriate in terms of time.

In FUZZY C-MEANS algorithm, a object can belong to one or more cluster.

However, a object can belong to only a cluster in the other two algorithms.
