Abstract

Abstract Clustering is one of the most fundamental and essential data analysis tasks with broad applications. It has been studied in various research fields: data mining, machine learning, pattern recognition and in engineering, economics and biomedical data analysis. Headache is not a disease that typically shortens one’s life, but it can be a serious social as well as a health problem. Approximately 27 billion euros per year are lost through reduced work productivity in the European community. This paper is focused on a new strategy based on a hybrid model for combining fuzzy partition method and maximum likelihood estimation clustering algorithm for diagnosing primary headache disorder. The proposed hybrid system is tested on two data sets for diagnosing headache disorder collected from Clinical Centre of Vojvodina in Serbia.

Summary

Introduction

Clustering is one of the most fundamental and essential data analysis tasks with broad applications. It is a process in which a group of unlabeled patterns are partitioned into several sets so that similar patterns are assigned to the same cluster, and dissimilar patterns are assigned to different clusters. The purpose of clustering is to identify natural groupings of data from a large data set to produce a concise representation of a system’s behaviour. There are some goals for clustering algorithms: (1) estimating the optimal number of clusters, (2) determining good clusters and (3) doing so efficiently. One of the main difficulties for cluster analysis is estimating the optimal and the correct number of clusters of different types of data sets
