This repository is a container for Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) that perform the data mining task of clustering.
All algorithms are published, as denoted in Section Citation.
AffEDA is an EDA for enhancing the quality of Affinity Propagation, which is a clustering algorithm per se.
Clus-EDA performs clustering through the use of medoids, cluster representatives that are coincident with data objects (as opposed to centroids, which are hypothetical data objects).
PASCAL performs a density-based clustering using a Minimum Spanning Tree (MST). It produces a MST from the set of data objects and then proceeds to remove edges from this structure. Two objects connected by an edge are considered to belong to the same cluster.
