Random Projections for $k$-means Clustering
This paper discusses the topic of dimensionality reduction for k-means clustering. We prove that any set of n points in d dimensions (rows in a matrix A ∈ Rn×d ) can be project...

A local search approximation algorithm for k-means clustering
In k-means clustering we are given a set of n data points in d-dimensional space d and an integer k, and the problem is to determine a set of k points in d , called centers, to mi...

K-means Clustering for Classifying Unlabelled MRI Data
Texture analysis of the liver for the diagnosis of cirrhosis is usually region-of-interest (ROI) based. Integrity of the label of ROI data may be a problem due to sampling. This p...

Exploiting Distribution Skew for Scalable P2P Text Clustering
K-Means clustering is widely used in information retrieval and data mining. Distributed K-Means variants have already been proposed, but none of the past algorithms scales to large...

Smaller coresets for k-median and k-means clustering
In this paper, we show that there exists a (k, ε)-coreset for k-median and k-means clustering of n points in IRd , which is of size independent of n. In particular, we construct ...

Fuzzy Clustering Paradigm and the Shape-Based Image Retrieval
This paper presents a strategy for shape-based image retrieval in which moment invariants form a feature vector to describe the shape of an object. Fuzzy k-means clustering is use...

Fast k-Means Algorithms with Constant Approximation
In this paper we study the k-means clustering problem. It is well-known that the general version of this problem is NP-hard. Numerous approximation algorithms have been proposed fo...
