A genetic k-medoids clustering algorithm

Abstract: We propose a hybrid genetic algorithm for k-medoids clustering. A novel heuristic operator is designed and integrated with the genetic algorithm to fine-tune the search. Further, variable length individuals that encode different number of medoids (clusters) are used for evolution with a modified Davies-Bouldin index as a measure of the fitness of the corresponding partitionings. As a result the proposed algorithm can efficiently evolve appropriate partitionings while making no a priori assumption about the num… Show more

“…b.2.1 IP-based clustering grouping algorithm Current clustering algorithm like K-means [6] , k-medoids [7] and DBSCAN [8] does not work well on IP address. An algorithm that uses the longest prefix match [9] as the similarity metric and an adaptation of the nearest neighbor heuristic for clustering was presented in Ref.…”

“…In order to improve the performance of k-medoid algorithm, many and various methods had been proposed. In (Sheng & Liu, 2006) a hybrid Genetic algorithm with k-medoid for clustering has been proposed, the new algorithm evolve appropriate partitioning while making no a priori assumption about the number of clusters present in the datasets. In (Archna, Pramod & Nair, 2010), the authors proposed an enhanced version for k-medoid that eliminate deficiency of the old one by calculating the initial medoid k as per needs of users and applies an effective approach for allocation of data points into the clusters.…”
