Fuzzy k-means clustering is an attractive alternative to the ordinary k-means clustering in analyzing multivariate data. Fuzzy versions yield more natural output by allowing overlapped k groups. In this study, we modify a fuzzy k-means clustering algorithm to be used for undirected social networks, apply the algorithm to both real and simulated cases, and report the results.

The research Interest of this paper is focused on the efficient clustering task for an arbitrary color data. In order to tackle this problem, we have tiled to model the inherent uncertainty and vagueness of color data using fuzzy color model. By laking a fuzzy approach to color modeling, we could make a soft decision for the vague regions between neighboring colors. The proposed fuzzy color model defined a three dimensional fuzzy color ball and color membership computation method with the two inter-color distance measures. With the fuzzy color model, we developed a new fuzzy clustering algorithm for an efficient partition of color data. Each fuzzy cluster set has a cluster prototype which is represented by fuzzy color centroid.

칼라 영상 분할의 한 방법으로 fuzzy C-means를 이용한 방법이 많이 연구되었으나, 이 방법은 클러스터의 개수가 정해져야 사용할 수 있는 방법이다. 분할해야 할 데이터가 많은 경우 예비 분할을 수행하여 예비 분할 되지 않는 데이터들에 대해서 상세 분할을 fuzzy C-means를 사용하여 분할 하나 예비 분할된 데이터의 클러스터 중심과 상세 분할로 만들어진 클러스터의 중심과는 연계성이 없어진다. 본 연구에서는 이것을 보완하기 위하여 차감 클러스터링을 사용하여 칼라 영상의 클러스터의 개수와 중심을 구한 후, 이것을 이용하여 영상을 예비 분할하고 중력을 가진 fuzzy C-means를 사용하여 분할되지 않은 나머지 부분과 클러스터의 중심을 최적화 시켜 분할하는 알고리듬을 제안한다. 제안된 방법의 정성적인 평가를 수행하여 본 논문에서 제시된 방법이 우수함을 보인다.

본 논문에서는 FCM 클러스터링 알고리즘을 기반으로 하는 퍼지뉴럴네트워크를 제안한다. 일반적으로, 퍼지규칙을 생성할 때 차원이 증가하면 퍼지 규칙의 수가 기하급수적으로 증가하는 문제를 가지고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해, 제안된 네트워크의 퍼지 규칙은 FCM 클러스터링 알고리즘을 이용하여 입력 공간을 분산 형태로 분할함으로써 생성한다. 퍼지 규칙의 전반부 파라미터는 FCM 클러스터링 알고리즘에 의한 소속행렬로 결정된다. 퍼지 규칙의 후반부는 다항식 함수의 형태로 표현되며, 퍼지뉴럴네트워크의 학습은 뉴런의 연결을 조절함으로써 실현되고, 오류 역전파 알고리즘에 의해 행해진다. 마지막으로, 제안된 네트워크는 비선형 공정으로의 적용을 통해 성능을 평가한다.

FCM 클러스터링 알고리즘은 대표적인 분할기반 군집화 알고리즘이며 다양한 분야에서 성공적으로 적용되어 왔다. 그러나 FCM 클러스터링 알고리즘은 잡음 및 지역 데이터에 대한 높은 민감도, 직관적인 결과와 상이한 결과 도출 가능성이 높은 문제, 초기 원형과 클러스터 개수 설정 문제 등이 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 FCM 알고리즘의 결과를 해당 속성의 데이터 축에 사상하여 퍼지구간을 결정하고, 결정된 퍼지구간을 FDT에 적용함으로써 FCM 알고리즘이 가지는 문제 중 잡음 및 데이터에 대한 높은 민감도, 직관적인 결과와 상이한 결과 도출 가능성이 높은 문제를 개선하는 시스템을 제안한다. 또한 실제 교통데이터와 강수량 데이터를 이용한 실험을 통하여 제안 모델과 FCM 클러스터링 알고리즘을 비교한다. 실험 결과를 통해 제안 모델은 잡음 및 데이터에 대한 민감도를 완화시킴으로써 보다 안정적인 결과를 제공하며, FCM 클러스터링 알고리즘을 적용한 시스템보다 직관적인 결과와의 일치율을 높여줌을 알 수 있다.

Due to advances in hardware performance, user-friendly interfaces are becoming one of the major concerns in information systems. Linguistic conversation is a very natural way of human communications. Fuzzy techniques have been employed to liaison the discrepancy between the qualitative linguistic terms and quantitative computerized data. This paper deals with linguistic queries using clustering results on data sets, which are intended to retrieve the close clusters or distant clusters from the clustering results. In order to support such queries, a fuzzy technique-based method is proposed. The method introduces distance membership functions, namely, close and distant membership functions which transform the metric distance between two objects into the degree of closeness or farness, respectively. In order to measure the degree of closeness or farness between two clusters, both cluster closeness measure and cluster farness measure which incorporate distance membership function and cluster memberships are considered. For the flexibility of clustering, fuzzy clusters are assumed to be formed. This allows us to linguistically query close or distant clusters by constructing fuzzy relation based on the measures.

The focus of this paper is on devising an efficient clustering task for arbitrary color data. In order to tackle this problem, the inherent uncertainty and vagueness of color are represented by a fuzzy color model. By taking a fuzzy approach to color representation, the proposed model makes a soft decision for the vague regions between neighboring colors. A definition on a three-dimensional fuzzy color ball is introduced, and the degree of membership of color is computed by employing a distance measure between a fuzzy color and color data. With the fuzzy color model, a novel fuzzy clustering algorithm for efficient partition of color data is developed.

In this paper, we introduce a novel learning methodology of fuzzy clustering-based neural network pattern classifier. Fuzzy clustering-based neural network pattern classifier depicts the patterns of given classes using fuzzy rules and categorizes the patterns on unseen data through fuzzy rules. Least squares estimator(LSE) or weighted least squares estimator(WLSE) is typically used in order to estimate the coefficients of polynomial function, but this study proposes a novel coefficient estimate method which includes advantages of the existing methods. The premise part of fuzzy rule depicts input space as "If" clause of fuzzy rule through fuzzy c-means(FCM) clustering, while the consequent part of fuzzy rule denotes output space through polynomial function such as linear, quadratic and their coefficients are estimated by the proposed local least squares estimator(LLSE)-based learning. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed pattern classifier, the variety of machine learning data sets are exploited in experiments and through the comparative analysis of performance, it provides that the proposed LLSE-based learning method is preferable when compared with the other learning methods conventionally used in previous literature.

In this paper, we proposed a learning algorithm for the neuro-fuzzy modeling using a learning rule to adapt clustering. The proposed algorithm includes the data partition, assigning the rule into the process of partition, and optimizing the parameters using predetermined threshold value in self-constructing algorithm. In order to improve the clustering, the learning method of neuro-fuzzy model is extended and the learning scheme has been modified such that the learning of overall model is extended based on the error-derivative learning. The effect of the proposed method is presented using simulation compare with previous ones.

In this paper, we proposed a new method of modeling a neuro-fuzzy system using a hybrid clustering algorithm. The initial parameters and the number of clusters of the proposed system are optimally chosen simultaneously with respect to the process of regression, which is a unique characteristics of the proposed system. The proposed algorithm presented in this work improves the overall performance of the proposed a neuro-fuzzy system by choosing a proper number of clusters adaptively according the characteristics of given data. The process of clustering is performed by deciding on the number of classes, which yields the property of convergence of the system. In experiments, the superiority of the proposed neuro-fuzzy system is demonstrated, especially the process of optimizing parameters and clustering of learning speed.
