A clustering ensemble: Two-level-refined co-association matrix with path-based transformation

作者：

Highlights：

• A two-level-refined co-association matrix for cluster ensemble is proposed.

• The refined co-association matrix is transformed by path-based measure.

• A theoretical background of the refinement is given.

• The proposed method outperforms some state-of-the-art ensemble methods.
