Abstract

According to the defects of classical k-means clustering algorithm such as sensitive to the initial clustering center selection, the poor global search ability, falling into the local optimal solution. Artificial Bee Colony algorithm based on K-means was introduced in this article, then put forward an improved Artificial Bee Colony algorithm combined with k-means clustering algorithm at the same time. The experiments showed that the method has solved algorithm stability of k-means clustering algorithm well, and more effectively improved clustering quality and property.
