  2. Cluster analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cluster_analysis

    Cluster analysis or clustering is the task of grouping a set of objects in such a way that objects in the same group (called a cluster) are more similar (in some specific sense defined by the analyst) to each other than to those in other groups (clusters).

  3. Cognitive categorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_categorization

    Conceptual clustering is a machine learning paradigm for unsupervised classification that was defined by Ryszard S. Michalski in 1980. [ 38 ] [ 39 ] It is a modern variation of the classical approach of categorization, and derives from attempts to explain how knowledge is represented.

  4. Hierarchical clustering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_clustering

    The standard algorithm for hierarchical agglomerative clustering (HAC) has a time complexity of () and requires () memory, which makes it too slow for even medium data sets. . However, for some special cases, optimal efficient agglomerative methods (of complexity ()) are known: SLINK [2] for single-linkage and CLINK [3] for complete-linkage clusteri

  5. Nearest-neighbor chain algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nearest-neighbor_chain...

    In the theory of cluster analysis, the nearest-neighbor chain algorithm is an algorithm that can speed up several methods for agglomerative hierarchical clustering.These are methods that take a collection of points as input, and create a hierarchy of clusters of points by repeatedly merging pairs of smaller clusters to form larger clusters.

  6. Data stream clustering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_stream_clustering

    In computer science, data stream clustering is defined as the clustering of data that arrive continuously such as telephone records, multimedia data, financial transactions etc. Data stream clustering is usually studied as a streaming algorithm and the objective is, given a sequence of points, to construct a good clustering of the stream, using a small amount of memory and time.

  7. Conceptual clustering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conceptual_clustering

    Conceptual clustering is a machine learning paradigm for unsupervised classification that has been defined by Ryszard S. Michalski in 1980 (Fisher 1987, Michalski 1980) and developed mainly during the 1980s. It is distinguished from ordinary data clustering by generating a concept description for each generated class.

  8. Classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classification

    Classification is a part of many different kinds of activities and is studied from many different points of view including medicine, philosophy, law, anthropology, biology, taxonomy, cognition, communications, knowledge organization, psychology, statistics, machine learning, economics and mathematics.

  9. Memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory

    Overview of the forms and functions of memory. Memory is the faculty of the mind by which data or information is encoded, stored, and retrieved when needed.It is the retention of information over time for the purpose of influencing future action. [1]
