Abstract:Clustering analysis is the process of identifying similar patterns in various types of data. Heterogeneous categorical data consists of data on ordinal, nominal, binary, and Likert scales. The clustering solution for heterogeneous data clustering remains difficult due to partitioning complex and dissimilarity features. It is necessary to find a solution to highquality clustering techniques to efficiently determine the significant features of the data. This paper emphasizes using the firefly algorithm to reduce… Show more
