    Value, Cost, and Sharing: Open Issues in Constrained Clustering

    Clustering is an important tool for data mining, since it can identify major patterns or trends without any supervision (labeled data). Over the past five years, semi-supervised (constrained) clustering method...

    Active Learning with Irrelevant Examples

    Active learning algorithms attempt to accelerate the learning process by requesting labels for the most informative items first. In real-world problems, however, there may exist unlabeled items that are irrele...

    Measuring Constraint-Set Utility for Partitional Clustering Algorithms

    Clustering with constraints is an active area of machine learning and data mining research. Previous empirical work has convincingly shown that adding constraints to clustering improves performance, with respe...

    Active Constrained Clustering by Examining Spectral Eigenvectors

    This work focuses on the active selection of pairwise constraints for spectral clustering. We develop and analyze a technique for Active Constrained Clustering by Examining Spectral eigenvectorS (ACCESS) deriv...
