A New Cluster Validity Index Based on the Adjustment of Within-Cluster Distance
The evaluation on clustering results is an important component of clustering analysis, which can be conducted by the cluster validity index. However, the performances of most existing indices depend on not only the specific clustering algorithms but also

S-Divergence-Based Internal Clustering Validation Index.
A clustering validation index (CVI) is employed to evaluate an algorithm’s clustering results. Generally, CVI statistics can be split into three classes, namely internal, external, and relative cluster validations. Most of the existing internal CVIs were designed based on compactness (CM) and separation (SM).

A validity index based on cluster symmetry [PDF]
An important consideration in clustering is the determination of the correct number of clusters and the appropriate partitioning of a given data set. In this paper, a newly developed point symmetry distance is used to propose a new cluster validity index named Sym -index which provides a measure of "symmetricity" of the different partitionings of a ...

Cluster validity index for adaptive clustering algorithms
Everyday a large number of records of surfing internet are generated. In various situations when the authors are analysing internet data they do not know the cluster structure of the author's database of traffic features, such as when the border of cluster members is vague, and the clusters’ partitions have different shapes, how to establish an ...

Noise resistant generalized parametric validity index of clustering for gene expression data [PDF]
This article has been made available through the Brunel Open Access Publishing Fund.Validity indices have been investigated for decades. However, since there is no study of noise-resistance performance of these indices in the literature, there is no ...

An Internal Validity Index Based on Density-Involved Distance
It is crucial to evaluate the quality of clustering results in cluster analysis. Although many cluster validity indices (CVIs) have been proposed in the literature, they have some limitations when dealing with non-spherical datasets.
