A New Fuzzy Clustering Validity Index With a Median Factor for Centroid-Based Clustering

Determining the number of clusters, which is usually approved by domain experts or evaluated by clustering validity indexes, is an important issue in clustering analysis. This study discusses the effectiveness of clustering validity indexes for centroid-based partitional clustering algorithms. Most...
