Abstract
This paper deals with concise study on clustering: existing methods and developments made at various times. Clustering is defined as an unsupervised learning where thetargetsare sorted out on the foundationof some similarity inherent among them. In the recent times, we dispense with large masses of data including images, video, social text, DNA, gene information, etc. Data clustering analysis has come out as an efficient technique to accurately achieve the task of categorizing information into sensible groups. Clustering has a deep association with researches in several scientific fields.k-means algorithm was suggested in 1957. K-mean is the most popular partitional clustering method till date. In many commercial and non-commercial fields, clustering techniques are used. The applications of clustering in some areas like image segmentation, object and role recognition and data mining are highlighted. In this paper, we have presented a brief description of the surviving types of clustering approaches followed by a survey of the areas.
