Abstract


Clustering and classification have been useful and active areas of machine learning research that promise to help us cope with the problem of information overload on the Internet. BIRCH is a clustering algorithm designed  to  operate  under  the  assumption  "the  amount  of memory  available  is  limited,  whereas  the  dataset  can  be arbitrary large". The algorithm generates "a compact dataset summary" minimizing the I/O cost involved .An application of k-means requires an initial partition to be supplied as an input. To generate a "good" initial partition of the "summaries" a clustering algorithm, PDDP can be used. Also we compare the performance of traditional K-Means algorithm with a new artificial neural network based clustering method. Experimental results show that the new method works more accurately than K-Means.
