Incremental (k, z)-Clustering on Graphs

arXiv:2602. 08542v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Given a weighted undirected graph, a number of clusters $k$, and an exponent $z$, the goal in the $(k, z)$-clustering problem on graphs is to select $k$ vertices as centers that minimize the sum of the distances raised to the power $z$ of each vertex to its closest center.

Anisotropic View Distance Metric for High-Dimensional Data: Theory, Geometry, and Fast Computation

The paper introduces View distance, a novel metric that projects high‑dimensional data onto all pairwise two‑dimensional planes and sums the Euclidean distances across these projections. It satisfies metric axioms, couples features, suppresses redundancy, and captures anisotropic geometry. To make it scalable, the authors propose a plane‑selection strategy using iterative Maximum Weight Matching, reducing complexity from ω(n²) to ω(k) and demonstrating competitive performance on twelve datasets.
