Shrnutí:This article presents an adaptive resonance theory predictive mapping (ARTMAP) model, which uses incremental cluster validity indices (iCVIs) to perform unsupervised learning, namely, iCVI-ARTMAP. Incorporating iCVIs to the decision-making and many-to-one mapping capabilities of this adaptive resonance theory (ART)-based model can improve the choices of clusters to which samples are incrementally assigned. These improvements are accomplished by intelligently performing the operations of swapping sample assignments between clusters, splitting and merging clusters, and caching the values of variables when iCVI values need to be recomputed. Using recursive formulations enables iCVI-ARTMAP to considerably reduce the computational burden associated with cluster validity index (CVI)-based offline clustering. In this work, six iCVI-ARTMAP variants were realized via the integration of one information-theoretic and five sum-of-squares-based iCVIs into fuzzy ARTMAP. With proper choice of iCVI, iCVI-ARTMAP either outperformed or performed comparably to three ART-based and four non-ART-based clustering algorithms in experiments using benchmark datasets of different natures. Naturally, the performance of iCVI-ARTMAP is subject to the selected iCVI and its suitability to the data at hand; fortunately, it is a general model in which other iCVIs can be easily embedded.
