A multicriteria decision making approach for estimating the number of clusters in a data set. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Determining the number of clusters in a data set is an essential yet difficult step in cluster analysis. Since this task involves more than one criterion, it can be modeled as a multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) problem.

A Novel MCDM Method: The Integrative Reference Point Approach

open access: yesInformatica, 2023
This study proposes a novel method called the “Integrative Reference Point Approach (IRPA)” as an alternative method to existing MCDM methods. The basis of the newly proposed method is the satisfaction function and the reference set approach. Three different applications are performed to verify the validity of the proposed method from the perspective ...
