Zusammenfassung:Clustering is a method of data analysis without the use of supervised data. Even-sized clustering based on optimization (ECBO) is a clustering algorithm that focuses on cluster size with the constraints that cluster sizes must be the same. However, this constraints makes ECBO inconvenient to apply in cases where a certain margin of cluster size is allowed. It is believed that this issue can be overcome by applying a fuzzy clustering method. Fuzzy clustering can represent the membership of data to clusters more flexible. In this paper, we propose a new even-sized clustering algorithm based on fuzzy clustering and verify its effectiveness through numerical examples.
