Dwarf is a highly compressed structure, which compresses the cube by eliminating the semantic redundancies while computing a data cube. Although it has high compression ratio, Dwarf is slower in querying and more difficult in updating due to its structure characteristics. We all know that the original intention of data cube is to speed up the query performance, so we propose two novel clustering methods for query optimization: the recursion clustering method which clusters the nodes in a recursive manner to speed up point queries and the hierarchical clustering method which clusters the nodes of the same dimension to speed up range queries. To facilitate the implementation, we design a partition strategy and a logical clustering mechanism. Experimental results show our methods can effectively improve the query performance on data cubes, and the recursion clustering method is suitable for both point queries and range queries.

This research deals with an off-line learning method targeted for systematically constructing negotiation strategies in automated electronic commerce. Single-issue negotiation is assumed. Variants of competitive learning and hierarchical clustering method are devised and applied to extracting negotiation strategies, given historical negotiation data set and tactics. Our research is motivated by the following fact: evidence from both theoretical analysis and observations of human interaction shows that if decision makers have prior knowledge on the behaviors of opponents from negotiation, the overall payoff would increase. Simulation-based experiments convinced us that the proposed method is more effective than human negotiation in terms of the ratio of negotiation settlement and resulting payoff.

We propose UPGMA(Unweighted Pair Group Method using Average distance) as hierarchical clustering to detect abrupt shot changes using multiple features such as pixel-by-pixel difference, global and local histogram difference. Conventional $\kappa$-means algorithm which is a method of the partitional clustering, has to select an efficient initial cluster center adaptively UPGMA that we propose, does not need initial cluster center because of agglomerative algorithm that it starts from each sample for clusters. And UPGMA results in stable performance. Experiment results show that the proposed algorithm works not only well but also stably.

This paper reports on the application of network analysis approaches to investigate the characteristics of graph representations of Japanese word associations. Two semantic networks are constructed from two separate Japanese word association databases. The basic statistical features of the networks indicate that they have scale-free and small-world properties and that they exhibit hierarchical organization. A graph clustering method is also applied to the networks with the objective of generating hierarchical structures within the semantic networks. The method is shown to be an efficient tool for analyzing large-scale structures within corpora. As a utilization of the network clustering results, we briefly introduce two web-based applications: the first is a search system that highlights various possible relations between words according to association type, while the second is to present the hierarchical architecture of a semantic network. The systems realize dynamic representations of network structures based on the relationships between words and concepts.

클러스터링(Clustering)은 유사한 문서나 데이터를 묶어 군집화해주는 프로세스이다. 클러스터링은 문서들을 대표하는 개념별로 그룹화함으로써 사용자가 자신이 원하는 주제의 문서를 찾기 위해 모든 문서를 검사할 필요가 없도록 도와준다. 이를 위해 유사한 문서를 찾아 그룹화하고, 이 그룹의 대표되는 개념을 도출하여 표현해주는 기법이 요구된다. 이 상황에서 문제점으로 대두되는 것이 복합 개념(Complex Concept)의 탐지이다. 복합 개념은 서로 다른 개념의 여러 클러스터에 속하는 중복 개념이다. 기존의 클러스터링 방법으로는 문서를 클러스터링할 때 동일한 레벨에 있는 서로 다른 개념의 클러스터에 속하는 중복된 복합 개념의 클러스터를 찾아서 표현할 수가 없었고, 또한 복합 개념과 각 단순 개념(Simple Concept) 사이의 의미적 계층 관계를 제대로 검증하기가 어려웠다. 본 논문에서는 기존 클러스터링 방법의 문제점을 해결하여 복합 개념을 쉽게 찾아 표현하는 방법을 제안한다. 기존의 계층적 클러스터링 알고리즘을 변형하여 동일 레벨에서 중복을 허용하는 계층적 클러스터링(Hierarchical Overlapping Clustering, HOC) 알고리즘을 개발하였다. HOC 알고리즘은 문서를 클러스터링하여 그 결과를 트리가 아닌 개념 중복이 가능한 Lattice 계층 구조로 표현함으로써 이를 통해 여러 개념이 중복된 복합 개념을 탐지할 수 있었다. HOC 알고리즘을 이용해 생성된 각 클러스터의 개념이 제대로 된 의미적인 계층 관계로 표현되었는지는 특징 선택(Feature Selection) 방법을 적용하여 검증하였다.

대규모 데이터에 대한 특성에 따라 몇 개의 클러스터로 군집화하는 클러스터링 기법은 계층적 클러스터링이나 분할 클러스터링 등 다양한 기법이 있는데 그 중에서 K-Means 알고리즘은 구현이 쉬우나 할당-재계산에 소요되는 시간이 증가하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 초기 클러스터 중심들 간의 거리가 최대가 되도록 하여 초기 클러스터 중심들이 고르게 분포되도록 함으로써 할당-재계산 횟수를 줄이고 전체 클러스터링 시간을 감소시키고자 한다.

This study proposes a model for customer segmentation using the psychological characteristics of Internet banking customers. The model was developed through two phased clustering method, called SONN-HC by integrating self-organizing neural networks (SONN) and hierarchical clustering (HC) method. We applied the SONN-HC method to internet banking customer segmentation and performed an empirical analysis with 845 cases. The results of our empirical analysis show the psychological characteristics of Internet banking customers have significant differences among four clusters of the customers created by SONN-HC. From these results, we found that the psychological characteristics of Internet banking customers had an important role of planning a strategy for customer segmentation in a financial institution.

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.

Gene expression data are the quantitative measurements of expression levels and ratios of numberous genes in different situations based on microarray image analysis results. The process to draw meaningful information related to genomic diseases and various biological activities from gene expression data is known as gene expression data analysis. In this paper, we present a hierarchical clustering method of gene expression data based on self organizing map which can analyze the clustering result of gene expression data more efficiently. Using our proposed method, we could eliminate the uncertainty of cluster boundary which is the inherited disadvantage of self organizing map and use the visualization function of hierarchical clustering. And, we could process massive data using fast processing speed of self organizing map and interpret the clustering result of self organizing map more efficiently and user-friendly. To verify the efficiency of our proposed algorithm, we performed tests with following 3 data sets, animal feature data set, yeast gene expression data and leukemia gene expression data set. The result demonstrated the feasibility and utility of the proposed clustering algorithm.
