Clustering algorithms based on volume criteria.

Clustering algorithms based on volume criteria.

Clustering algorithms such as the K-means algorithm and the fuzzy C-means algorithm are based on the minimization of the trace of the (fuzzy) within-fluster scatter matrix. In this paper, we explore the use of determinant (volume) criteria for clustering. We derive an algorithm called the minimum sc...
