Abstract

Clustering is an important tool for data exploration. Several clustering algorithms exist, and new algorithms are frequently proposed in the literature. These algorithms have been very successful in a large number of real-world problems. However, there is no clustering algorithm, optimizing only a single criterion, able to reveal all types of structures (homogeneous or heterogeneous) present in a dataset. In order to deal with this problem, several multi-objective clustering and cluster ensemble methods have been proposed in the literature, including our multi-objective clustering ensemble algorithm. In this chapter, we present an overview of these methods, which, to a great extent, are based on the combination of various aspects of traditional clustering algorithms.
