A hybrid unsupervised approach for document clustering
We propose a hybrid, unsupervised document clustering approach that combines a hierarchical clustering algorithm with Expectation Maximization. We developed several heuristics to ...

On Dynamic Weighting of Data in Clustering with K-Alpha Means
Although many methods of refining initialization have appeared, the sensitivity of K-Means to initial centers is still an obstacle in applications. In this paper, we investigate a...
