Unsupervised collaborative boosting of clustering: An unifying framework for multi-view clustering, multiple consensus clusterings and alternative clustering

摘要

In this paper, we propose a collaborative framework that is able to solve multi-view and alternative clustering problems using some clustering ensemble and semi-supervised clustering principles. We provide a mechanism to control, via an information sharing model, different clustering algorithms to obtain consensus or alternative clustering solutions. The strong point is that our approach does not need to know which clustering algorithms to use nor their parameters.
