K-means Clustering Based on Improved Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm

In clustering, in order to find a better data clustering center, make the algorithm convergence faster and clustering results more accurate, a k-means clustering algorithm based on improved quantum particle swarm optimization algorithm is proposed. In this algorithm, the cluster center is simulated as a particle. Cloning and mutation operations are used to increase the diversity and improve the global search ability of QPSO. A suitable and stable cluster center is obtained. Finally, an effective clustering result is obtained. The algorithm is tested with UCI data set. The results show that the improved algorithm not only ensures the global convergence of the algorithm, but also obtains more accurate clustering results.
