An interval weighed fuzzy c-means clustering by genetically guided alternating optimization

作者:

Highlights:

• Interval attribute weights are proposed and introduced for fuzzy clustering.

• Genetic mechanism and gradient-based iteration constitute optimization strategy.

• Data partition and weights can be obtained by minimizing the objective function.

• Reasonable clustering results can be achieved more easily.
