Most of the classical clustering algorithms are strongly dependent on, and sensitive to, parameters such as number of expected clusters and resolution level. To overcome this drawback, a Genetic Programming framework, capable of performing an automatic data clustering, is presented.

Abstract

Most of the classical clustering algorithms are strongly dependent on, and sensitive to, parameters such as number of expected clusters and resolution level. To overcome this drawback, a Genetic Programming framework, capable of performing an automatic data clustering, is presented. Moreover, a novel way of representing clusters which provides intelligible information on patterns is introduced together with an innovative clustering process. The effectiveness of the implemented partitioning system is estimated on a medical domain by means of evaluation indices.
