Partitional Clustering with a Modified Differential Evolution Algorithm
A partitional clustering algorithm based on a modified differential evolution is proposed to determining the optimal number of clusters and finding the optimal partition of a data set. The proposed algotihhm is tested with four artificial and real world data sets. The empirical results show that the proposed clustering algorithm is feasible and effective, moreover, it converges faster than the clustering algorithm based on the basic differential evolution.
