What is k-medoid clustering? Proposed in 1987 (L. Kaufman and P.J. Rousseeuw) There are N points in the space k points are chosen as centers (medoids) Classify other points into k groups Which k points should be chosen to minimize the summation of the points to its medoid
5
Difficulty NP-hard Genetic algorithms can be applied

Partitioning Around Medoids (PAM) Kaufman, L., & Rousseeuw, P. J. (1990). Finding groups in data: An introduction to cluster analysis. New York: Wiley Group N data into k sets In every generation, select every pair of (O i, O j ), where O i is a medoid and O j is not, if replace O i by O j would reduce the distance, replace O i by O j Computation time : O(k(N-k) 2 ) [one generation]

Clustering LARge Applications (CLARA) Kaufman, L., & Rousseeuw, P. J. (1990). Finding groups in data: An introduction to cluster analysis. New York: Wiley Reduce the calculation time Only select s data in original N data s = 40+2k seems a good choice Computation time : O(ks 2 +k(n-k)) [one generation]

12
Chromosome encoding N data, clustering to k groups Problem size = k (the number of groups) each location of the string is an integer (1~N) (a medoid)
13
Initialization Each string in the population uniquely encodes a candidate solution of the target problem Random choose the candidates
14
Selection Select M worst individuals in population and throw them out
15
Crossover Select some individuals for reproducing M new population Building-block like crossover Mutation
16
Crossover For example, k =3, p 1 = 2 3 7, p 2 = 4 8 2 1. Mix p 1 and p 2 Q = 2 1 3 1 7 1 4 2 8 2 2 2 randomly scramble : Q = 4 2 2 2 2 1 8 2 7 1 3 1 2. Add new material : first k elements may be changed Q = 5 2 2 7 8 2 7 1 3 1 3. randomly scramble again Q = 2 2 7 1 7 3 1 5 8 2 4. The offspring are selected from left or from right C 1 = 2 7 3, C 2 = 8 5 3
17
Experiment Under the limit of NFE < 100000 N = 1000, k = 15
18
Experiment GCA versus Random search
19
Experiment GCA versus CLARA (k = 15)
20
Experiment GCA versus CLARA (k = 50)
21
Experiment
22
Paper’s conclusion GCA can handle both large values of k and small values of k GCA outperforms CLARA, especially when k is a large value GCA lends itself excellently for parallelization GCA can be combined with CLARA to obtain a hybrid searching system with better performance.

24
Motivation In some cases, we do not actually know the number of clusters If we only know the upper limit?

Chromosome encoding N data, clustering to at most k groups Problem size = N+1 each location of the string is an integer (1~k) (belongs to which cluster ) Genotype1: 22345123453321454552 5 To avoid following problems: Genotype2: 2|2222|111113333344444 4 Genotype3: 4|4444|333335555511111 4 Child2: 2 4444 111113333344444 4 Child3: 4 2222 333335555511111 5 Consistent Algorithm : 11234512342215343441 5
29
Initialization Population size = 20 The first genotype represents two clusters, the second genotype represents three clusters, the third genotype represents four clusters,..., and the last one represents 21 clusters

Selection
31
Crossover Uniform crossover do not work Use Grouping Genetic Algorithm (GGA), proposed by Falkenauer (1998) First, two strings are selected A − 1123245125432533424 B − 1212332124423221321 Randomly select groups to preserve in A (For example, group 2 and 3)
32
Crossover A − 1123245125432533424 B − 1212332124423221321 C − 0023200020032033020 Check the unchanged group in B and place in C C − 0023200024432033020 Another child : form by the groups in B (without which is actually placed in C) D − 1212332120023221321
33
Crossover A − 1123245125432533424 B − 1212332124423221321 C − 0023200024432033020 Another child : form by the groups in B (without which is actually placed in C) D − 1212332120023221321 Check the unchanged group in A and place in D The other objects (whose alleles are zeros) are placed to the nearest cluster
34
Mutation Two ways for mutation 1. randomly chosen a group, places all the objects to the remaining cluster that has the nearest centroid 2. divides a randomly selected group into two new ones Just change the genotypes in the smallest possible way
35
Experiment 4 test problems (N = 75, 200, 699, 150)
36
Experiment Ruspini data (N = 75)
37
Paper’s conclusion Do not need to know the number of groups Find out the answer of four different test problems successfully Only on small population size
38
k-medoids clustering famous works GCA : clustering with the add of a genetic algorithm Clustering genetic algorithm : also judge the number of clusters Conclusion
39
Genetic algorithms is an acceptable method for clustering problems Need to design crossover carefully Maybe EDAs can be applied Some theses? Or final projects!
