A Propound Method for the Improvement of Cluster Quality
Abstract
In this paper Knockout Refinement Algorithm (KRA) is proposed to refine original clusters obtained by applying SOM and K-Means clustering algorithms. KRA Algorithm is based on Contingency Table concepts. Metrics are computed for the Original and Refined Clusters. Quality of Original and Refined Clusters are compared in terms of metrics. The proposed algorithm (KRA) is tested in the educational domain and results show that it generates better quality clusters in terms of improved metric values.
