arXiv:2607. 15835v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Big data clustering remains challenging: the Minimum Sum-of-Squares Clustering (MSSC) problem underlying K-means is NP-hard, and existing methods either reach poor local minima or require prohibitive metaheuristic hybrids.
arXiv:2606. 18972v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Extracting a flat clustering solution from a hierarchy is a common task in practical cluster analysis and can be formulated as an optimisation problem.
arXiv:2601. 06351v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Anticlustering is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem that consists of partitioning a set of objects into equal-sized groups called anticlusters such that the objects in the same anticluster are as dissimilar as possible and thereby representative of the entire set of objects.
arXiv:2607. 24237v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Many existing clustering methods are designed based on a set-oriented definition---a cluster is a set of similar points---relying a point-to-point similarity function to find similar points.
Extracting a flat clustering solution from a hierarchy is a common task in practical cluster analysis and can be formulated as an optimisation problem. Existing approaches focus on finding a single optimal solution.
arXiv:2606. 05230v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Selecting a clustering algorithm and its hyperparameters without labels is a common difficulty in engineering machine learning pipelines that work with unsupervised analysis of sensor, image, or process data.
