정보통신의 기술이 발달하면서 정보의 양이 많아지고 사용자의 질의에 대한 검색 결과 리스트도 많이 추출되므로 빠르고 고품질의 문서 클러스터링 알고리즘이 중요한 역할을 하고 있다. 많은 논문들이 계층적 클러스터링 방법을 이용하여 좋은 성능을 보이지만 시간이 많이 소요된다. 반면 K-means 알고리즘은 시간 복잡도를 줄일 수 있는 방법이다. 본 논문에서는 계층적 클러스터링 시스템인 콘도르(Condor) 시스템에서 간단하고 고품질이며 효율적으로 정보 검색 할 수 있도록 구현하였다. 이 시스템은 K-Means Algorithm을 이용하였으며 클러스터 계층 깊이와 초기값을 조절하여 $88\%$의 정확율을 보였다.

Clustering allows hierarchical structures to be built on the nodes and enables more efficient use of scarce resources, such as frequency spectrum, bandwidth, and energy in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). This paper proposes a hierarchical clustering algorithm called EEHC which is more energy efficient than existing algorithms for WSNs, It introduces region node selection as well as cluster head election based on the residual battery capacity of nodes to reduce the costs of managing sensor nodes and of the communication among them. The role of cluster heads or region nodes is rotated among nodes to achieve load balancing and extend the lifetime of every individual sensor node. To do this, EEHC clusters periodically to select cluster heads that are richer in residual energy level, compared to the other nodes, according to clustering policies from administrators. To prove the performance improvement of EEHC, the ns-2 simulator was used. The results show that it can reduce the energy and bandwidth consumption for organizing and managing WSNs comparing it with existing algorithms.

실시간으로 발생하는 뉴스 기사로부터 이슈를 분석하기 위한 다양한 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 하지만 범주에 따라 계층적으로 이슈를 분석하는 연구는 많이 진행되지 않았고, 계층적 이슈 분석을 위한 기존의 연구에서 제안하는 방식 또한 뉴스 기사 증가에 따라 군집화 속도가 느려지는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 준 실시간으로 뉴스 기사의 이슈를 분석하는 계층적·점증적 군집화 방식을 제안한다. 제안하는 군집화 방식은 샴 신경망을 이용한 가중 코사인 유사도 측정 모델 기반의 k-평균 알고리즘을 이용한 단어 군집 기반 문서 표현 방식을 통해 뉴스 기사를 문서 벡터로 표현한다. 그리고 문서 벡터로부터 초기 이슈 군집 트리를 생성하고, 새로 발생한 뉴스 기사를 해당 이슈 군집 트리에 추가하는 점증적 군집화 방식을 제안함으로써 뉴스 기사의 계층적 이슈를 준 실시간으로 분석한다. 마지막으로, 본 논문에서 제안하는 방식과 기존 방식들과의 성능평가를 통해 제안하는 군집화 방식이 정확도 측면에서 기존 방식 대비 NMI 지표 기준 0.26 정도 성능이 향상되었고, 속도 측면에서 약 10배 이상의 성능이 향상됨을 입증하였다.

무선 센서 네트워크에서 클러스터링 기법은 클러스터를 형성하여 데이터를 병합한 후 한 번에 전송해서 에너지를 효율적으로 사용하는 기법이다. 본 논문에서는 클러스터 그룹 모델을 이용한 계층적 불균형 클러스터링 기법을 제안한다. 이 기법은 전체 네트워크를 두 개의 계층으로 나누어 클러스터 그룹으로 형성된 2계층의 데이터를 병합해서 1계층으로 보내고, 다시 1계층에서 데이터를 병합하여 기지국으로 보낸다. 이와 같이 제안된 기법은 다중 홉 통신 구조와 클러스터 그룹 모델을 같이 이용함으로써 전체 에너지 소모량을 줄인다. 이러한 방식은 다중 홉 통신이지만 불균형 클러스터를 구축하여 핫 스팟 문제를 어느 정도 해결하고 있다. 실험을 통하여 제안된 계층적 불균형 클러스터링 기법이 이전의 클러스터링 기법보다 네트워크 에너지 효율이 향상되었음을 보였다.

China possesses a passenger dedicated line system of large scale, passenger flow intensity with uneven distribution, and passenger nodes with complicated relations. Consequently, the significance of passenger nodes shall be considered and the dissimilarity of passenger nodes shall be analyzed in compiling passenger train operation and conducting transportation allocation. For this purpose, the passenger nodes need to be hierarchically divided. Targeting at problems such as hierarchical dividing process vulnerable to subjective factors and local optimum in the current research, we propose a clustering approach based on self-organizing map (SOM) and k-means, and then, harnessing the new approach, hierarchical dividing of passenger dedicated line passenger nodes is effectuated. Specifically, objective passenger nodes parameters are selected and SOM is used to give a preliminary passenger nodes clustering firstly; secondly, Davies-Bouldin index is used to determine the number of clusters of the passenger nodes; and thirdly, k-means is used to conduct accurate clustering, thus getting the hierarchical dividing of passenger nodes. Through example analysis, the feasibility and rationality of the algorithm was proved.

In many cases, clustering algorithms have been used for extracting and discovering useful information from non-linear data. They have made a great effect on performances of the systems dealing with non-linear data. Thus, this paper presents a new approach called hierarchically structured clustering algorithm, and it is applied to the prediction system for non-linear time series data. The proposed hierarchically structured clustering algorithm (called HCKA: Hierarchical Cross-correlation and K-means clustering Algorithms) in which the cross-correlation and k-means clustering algorithm are combined can accept the correlationship of non-linear time series as well as statistical characteristics. First, the optimal differences of data are generated, which can suitably reveal the characteristics of non-linear time series. Second, the generated differences are classified into the upper clusters for their predictors by the cross-correlation clustering algorithm, and then each classified differences are classified again into the lower fuzzy sets by the k-means clustering algorithm. As a result, the proposed method can give an efficient classification and improve the performance. Finally, we demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed HCKA via typical time series examples.

We propose a genome-scale clustering approach to identify whole genome relationships using the functional groups given by the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes Orthology (KO) database. The metabolic capabilities of each organism were defined by the number of genes in each functional category. The archaeal, bacterial, and eukaryotic genomes were compared by simultaneously applying a two-step clustering method, comprised of a self-organizing tree algorithm followed by unsupervised hierarchical clustering. The clustering results were consistent with various phenotypic characteristics of the organisms analyzed and, additionally, showed a different aspect of the relationship between genomes that have previously been established through rRNA-based comparisons. The proposed approach to collect and cluster the metabolic functional capabilities of organisms should make it a useful tool in predicting relationships among organisms.

The presence of local features within clusters incurred by multi-modal nature of data prohibits many conventional clustering techniques from working properly. Especially, the clustering of datasets with non-Gaussian distributions within a cluster can be problematic when the technique with implicit assumption of Gaussian distribution is used. Current study proposes a simple tandem clustering method composed of k-means type algorithm and hierarchical method to solve such problems. The multi-modal dataset is first divided into many small pre-clusters by k-means or fuzzy k-means algorithm. The pre-clusters found from the first step are to be clustered again using agglomerative hierarchical clustering method with Kullback- Leibler divergence as the measure of dissimilarity. This method is not only effective at extracting the multi-modal clusters but also fast and easy in terms of computation complexity and relatively robust at the presence of outliers. The performance of the proposed method was evaluated on three generated datasets and six sets of publicly known real world data.

The existence of noise bands may deform the typical shape of the spectrum, making the accuracy of clustering degraded. This paper proposes a statistical approach to remove noise bands in hyperspectral data using the correlation coefficient of bands as an indicator. Considering each band as a random variable, two adjacent signal bands in hyperspectral data are highly correlative. On the contrary, existence of a noise band will produce a low correlation. For clustering, the unsupervised ${\kappa}$-nearest neighbor clustering method is implemented in accordance with three well-accepted spectral matching measures, namely ED, SAM and SID. Furthermore, this paper proposes a hierarchical scheme of combining those measures. Finally, a separability assessment based on the between-class and the within-class scatter matrices is followed to evaluate the applicability of the proposed noise band removal method. Also, the paper brings out a comparison for spectral matching measures.

Ultra-dense small cell networks (UD-SCNs) have been identified as a promising scheme for next-generation wireless networks capable of meeting the ever-increasing demand for higher transmission rates and better quality of service. However, UD-SCNs will inevitably suffer from severe interference among the small cell base stations, which will lower their spectral efficiency. In this paper, we propose a software-defined networking (SDN)-based hierarchical agglomerative clustering (SDN-HAC) framework, which leverages SDN to centrally control all sub-channels in the network, and decides on cluster merging using a similarity criterion based on a suitability function. We evaluate the proposed algorithm through simulation. The obtained results show that the proposed algorithm performs well and improves system payoff by 18.19% and 436.34% when compared with the traditional network architecture algorithms and non-cooperative scenarios, respectively.
