Recently, due to molecular biology and engineering technology, DNA microarray makes people watch thousands of genes and the state of variation from the tissue samples of living body. With DNA Microarray, it is possible to construct a genetic group that has similar expression patterns and grasp the progress and variation of gene. This paper practices Cluster Analysis which purposes the discovery of biological subgroup or class by using gene expression information. Hence, the purpose of this paper is to predict a new class which is unknown, open leukaemia data are used for the experiment, and MCL (Markov CLustering) algorithm is applied as an analysis method. The MCL algorithm is based on probability and graph flow theory. MCL simulates random walks on a graph using Markov matrices to determine the transition probabilities among nodes of the graph. If you look at closely to the method, first, MCL algorithm should be applied after getting the distance by using Euclidean distance, then inflation and diagonal factors which are tuning modulus should be tuned, and finally the threshold using the average of each column should be gotten to distinguish one class from another class. Our method has improved the accuracy through using the threshold, namely the average of each column. Our experimental result shows about 70% of accuracy in average compared to the class that is known before. Also, for the comparison evaluation to other algorithm, the proposed method compared to and analyzed SOM (Self-Organizing Map) clustering algorithm which is divided into neural network and hierarchical clustering. The method shows the better result when compared to hierarchical clustering. In further study, it should be studied whether there will be a similar result when the parameter of inflation gotten from our experiment is applied to other gene expression data. We are also trying to make a systematic method to improve the accuracy by regulating the factors mentioned above.

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.

Data routing in wireless sensor networks must be energy-efficient because tiny sensor nodes have limited power. A cluster-based hierarchical routing is known to be more efficient than a flat routing because only cluster-heads communicate with a sink node. Existing hierarchical routings, however, assume unrealistically large radio transmission ranges for sensor nodes so they cannot be employed in real environments. In this paper, by considering the practical transmission ranges of the sensor nodes, we propose a clustering and routing method for hierarchical sensor networks: First, we provide the optimal ratio of cluster-heads for the clustering. Second, we propose a d-hop clustering scheme. It expands the range of clusters to d-hops calculated by the ratio of cluster-heads. Third, we present an intra-cluster routing in which sensor nodes reach their cluster-heads within d-hops. Finally, an inter-clustering routing is presented to route data from cluster-heads to a sink node using multiple hops because cluster-heads cannot communicate with a sink node directly. The efficiency of the proposed clustering and routing method is validated through extensive simulations.

본 논문에서는 계층적 클러스터링과 GMM을 순차적으로 이용하여 최적의 파라미터를 추정하고 이를 뉴로-퍼지 모델의 초기 파리미터로 사용하여 모델의 성능 개선을 제안한다. 반복적인 시도 중 가장 좋은 파라미터를 선택하는 기존의 알고리즘 과 달리 계층적 클러스터링은 데이터들 간의 유클리디언 거리를 이용하여 클러스터를 생성하므로 반복적인 시도가 불필요하다. 또한 클러스터링 방법에 의해 퍼지 모델링을 행하므로 클러스터와 동일한 갯수의 적은 규칙을 갖는다. 제안된 방법의 유용함을 비선형 데이터인 Box-Jenkins의 가스로 예측 문제와 Sugeno의 비선형 시스템에 적용하여 이전의 연구보다 적은 규칙으로도 성능이 개선되는 것을 보였다.

A multistage hierarchical clustering technique, which is an unsupervised technique, was suggested in this paper for classifying large remotely-sensed imagery. The multistage algorithm consists of two stages. The 'local' segmentor of the first stage performs region-growing segmentation by employing the hierarchical clustering procedure of CN-chain with the restriction that pixels in a cluster must be spatially contiguous. The 'global' segmentor of the second stage, which has not spatial constraints for merging, clusters the segments resulting from the previous stage, using the conventional agglomerative approach. Using simulation data, the proposed method was compared with another hierarchical clustering technique based on 'mutual closest neighbor.' The experimental results show that the new approach proposed in this study considerably increases in computational efficiency for larger images with a low number of bands. The technique was then applied to classify the land-cover types using the remotely-sensed data acquired from the Korean peninsula.

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 K-Means 알고리즘을 이용하여 효율적으로 정보 검색을 하고 검색결과를 계층적으로 볼 수 있도록 구현하였다. 이 시스템은 K-Means Algorithm을 이용하였으며 클러스터 계층 깊이와 초기값을 조절하여 더 나은 성능을 보임을 알 수 있다.

In this work we address the use of support vector machine (SVM) in the multi-class gas classification system. The objective is to classify single gases and their mixture with a semiconductor-type electronic nose. The SVM has some typical multi-class classification models; One vs. One (OVO) and One vs. All (OVA). However, studies on those models show weaknesses on calculation time, decision time and the reject region. We propose a hierarchical clustering method (HCM) based on the SVM for real-time gas mixture classification. Experimental results show that the proposed method has better performance than the typical multi-class systems based on the SVM, and that the proposed method can classify single gases and their mixture easily and fast in the embedded system compared with BP-MLP and Fuzzy ARTMAP.

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.

One of the common issues in large dataset analyses is to detect and construct homogeneous groups of objects in those datasets. This is typically done by some form of clustering technique. In this study, we present a divisive hierarchical clustering method for two monothetic characteristics of histogram data. Unlike classical data points, a histogram has internal variation of itself as well as location information. However, to find the optimal bipartition, existing divisive monothetic clustering methods for histogram data consider only location information as a monothetic characteristic and they cannot distinguish histograms with the same location but different internal variations. Thus, a divisive clustering method considering both location and internal variation of histograms is proposed in this study. The method has an advantage in interpreting clustering outcomes by providing binary questions for each split. The proposed clustering method is verified through a simulation study and applied to a large U.S. house property value dataset.
