Abstract
In fuzzy clustering algorithms, the possibilistic fuzzy clustering algorithm has been widely used in many fields. However, the traditional Euclidean distance cannot measure the similarity between samples well in high-dimensional data. Moreover, if there is an overlap between clusters or a strong correlation between features, clustering accuracy will be easily affected. To overcome the above problems, a collaborative possibilistic fuzzy clustering algorithm based on information bottleneck is proposed in this paper. This algorithm retains the advantages of the original algorithm, on the one hand, using mutual information loss as the similarity measure instead of Euclidean distance, which is conducive to reducing subjective errors caused by arbitrary choices of similarity measures and improving the clustering accuracy; on the other hand, the collaborative idea is introduced into the possibilistic fuzzy clustering based on information bottleneck, which can form an accurate and complete representation of the data organization structure based on make full use of the correlation between different feature subsets for collaborative clustering. To examine the clustering performance of this algorithm, five algorithms were selected for comparison experiments on several datasets. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the comparison algorithms in terms of clustering accuracy and collaborative validity.
