Even-Sized Clustering with Noise Clustering Method

Clustering is a method of data analysis without the use of supervised data. Clustering method focusing on cluster size is expected to be useful for task distribution problems and several methods have been proposed. We proposed Fuzzy Even-sized Clustering Based on optimization (FECBO) and COntrolled-sized Clustering Based on Optimization (COCBO) as a method focusing on cluster size. However, these methods have the problem that they are susceptible to noise. It is believed that this issue can be overcome by applying noise clustering method. Noise clustering is a method that it classify noise into noise clusters. In this study, we extend FECBO and COCBO with noise clustering and verify its effectiveness through numerical examples.
