The part family (PF) formation in a cellular manufacturing has been a key issue for the successful implementation of Group Technology (GT). Basically, a part has two different attributes; i.e., design and manufacturing. The respective similarity in both attributes is often conflicting each other. However, the two attributes should be taken into account appropriately in order for the PF to maximize the benefits of the GT implementation. This paper proposes a clustering algorithm which considers the two attributes simultaneously based on pareto optimal theory. The similarity in each attribute can be represented as two individual objective functions. Then, the resulting two objective functions are properly combined into a pareto fitness function which assigns a single fitness value to each solution based on the two objective functions. A GA is used to find the pareto optimal set of solutions based on the fitness function. A set of hypothetical parts are grouped using the proposed system. The results show that the proposed system is very promising in clustering with multiple objectives.

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is a distributed network composed of many sensory nodes. It is precisely due to the clustering unevenness and cluster head election randomness that the energy consumption of WSN is excessive. Therefore, a many-objective optimization WSN energy balance model is proposed for the first time in the clustering stage of LEACH protocol. The four objective is considered that the cluster distance, the sink node distance, the overall energy consumption of the network and the network energy consumption balance to select the cluster head, which to better balance the energy consumption of the WSN network and extend the network lifetime. A many-objective optimization algorithm to optimize the model (LEACH-ABF) is designed, which combines adaptive balanced function strategy with penalty-based boundary selection intersection strategy to optimize the clustering method of LEACH. The experimental results show that LEACH-ABF can balance network energy consumption effectively and extend the network lifetime when compared with other algorithms.

In a classical clustering problem, grouping is done on the basis of similarities or distances (dissimilarities) among the elements. Therefore, the objective is to minimize the variance within each group while maximizing the between-group variance among all groups. In this paper, however, a new class of clustering problem is introduced. We call this a laydown grouping problem (LGP). In LGP, the objective is to minimize both the within-group and between-group variances. Furthermore, the problem is expanded to a multi-dimensional case where the two-way minimization process must be considered for each dimension simultaneously for all measurement characteristics. At first, the problem is assessed by analyzing its variance structures and their complexities by conjecturing that LGP is NP-complete. Then, the simulated annealing (SA) algorithm is applied and the results are compared against that from others.

자조의 표현에서 군집화는 주어진 데이터를 서로 유사한 개체들끼리 몇 개의 집단으로 묶는 작업을 수행한다. 군집화의 유사도 결정 측도는 맡은 연구들에서 매우 다양한 것들이 사용되었다. 하지만 군집화 결과의 성능 측정에 대한 객관적인 기준 설정이 어렵기 때문에 군집화 결과에 대한 해석은 매우 주관적이고, 애매한 경우가 많다. 퍼지 군집화는 이러한 주관적인 군집화 문제에 있어서 객관성 있는 군집 결정 방안을 제시하여 준다. 각 개체들이 특정 군집에 속하게 될 퍼지 멤버 함수값을 원소로 하는 유사도 행렬을 통하여 군집화를 수행한다. 본 논문에서는 차원 축소기법의 하나인 주성분 분석과 강력한 통계적 학습 이론인 베이지안 학습을 결합한 군집화 모형을 제안하여, 객관적인 퍼지 군집화를 수행하였다. 제안 알고리즘의 성능 평가를 위하여 UCI Machine Loaming Repository의 Iris와 Glass Identification 데이터를 이용한 실험 결과를 제시하였다.

This paper proposes a simultaneous application of homogeneity analysis and fuzzy clustering with in complete data. Taking the similarity between the loss of homogeneity in homogeneity analysis and the least squares criterion in principal component analysis into account, the new objective function is defined in a similar formulation to the linear fuzzy clustering with missing values. Numerical experiment shows the characteristic properties of the proposed method.

Basic objective in cluster analysis is to discover natural groupings of items or variables. In general, variable clustering was conducted based on some similarity measures between variables which have binary characteristics. We propose a variable clustering method when variables have more categories ordered in some sense. We also consider some measures of association as a similarity between variables. Numerical example is included.

A mathematical definition of the cluster is suggested. A nonlinear 0-1 integer programming formulation for the multi-dimensional entity clustering problem is developed. A heuristic method named MDEC (Multi-Dimensional Entity Clustering) using centroids and the binary partition is developed and the numerical examples are shown. This method has an advantage of providing bottle-neck entity informations.

In this paper, we propose a modified fuzzy clustering algorithm which can overcome the center deviation due to the Euclidean distance commonly used in fuzzy clustering. Among fuzzy clustering methods, Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) is the most well-known clustering algorithm and has been widely applied to various problems successfully. In FCM, however, cluster centers tend leaning to high density clusters because the Euclidean distance measure forces high density cluster to make more contribution to clustering result. Proposed is an enhanced algorithm which modifies the objective function of FCM by adding a center-scattering term to make centers not to be close due to the cluster density. The proposed method converges more to real centers with small number of iterations compared to FCM. All the strengths can be verified with experimental results.

Statistical learning theory has three analytical tools which are support vector machine, support vector regression, and support vector clustering for classification, regression, and clustering respectively. In general, their performances are good because they are constructed by convex optimization. But, there are some problems in the methods. One of the problems is the subjective determination of the parameters for kernel function and regularization by the arts of researchers. Also, the results of the learning machines are depended on the selected parameters. In this paper, we propose an efficient method for objective determination of the parameters of support vector clustering which is the clustering method of statistical learning theory. Using evolutionary algorithm and bootstrap method, we select the parameters of kernel function and regularization constant objectively. To verify improved performances of proposed research, we compare our method with established learning algorithms using the data sets form ucr machine learning repository and synthetic data.

Fuzzy clustering has been playing an important role in solving many problems. Fuzzy c-Means(FCM) algorithm is most frequently used for fuzzy clustering. But some fixed point of FCM algorithm, know as Tucker's counter example, is not a reasonable solution. Moreover, FCM algorithm is impossible to perform the on-line learning since it is basically a batch learning scheme. This paper presents unsupervised learning networks as an attempt to improve shortcomings of the conventional clustering algorithm. This model integrates optimization function of FCM algorithm into unsupervised learning networks. The learning rule of the proposed scheme is a result of formal derivation based on the gradient descent procedure of a fuzzy objective function. Using the result of formal derivation, two algorithms of fuzzy cluster analysis, the batch learning version and on-line learning version, are devised. They are tested on several data sets and compared with FCM. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithms find out the reasonable solution on Tucker's counter example.
