Real-world data generally deals with inconsistency. The uncertain k-means (UK-means) clustering algorithm, a modification of k-means, handles uncertain objects whose positions are represented by probability density functions (pdfs). Various techniques have been developed to enhance the performance of UK-means clustering algorithm but they are all centered on two major factors: choosing initial cluster centers and determining the number of clusters. This paper proposes that the measure of “closeness” is also a critical factor in deciding the quality of clusters. In this paper, the authors study the performance of UK-means clustering algorithm on four different distance functions using Haberman’s survival dataset. The analysis is performed on the basis of Davies–Bouldin index and purity values. |
