Data clustering: an essential technique in data science
This paper explores the critical role of data clustering in data science, emphasizing its methodologies, tools, and diverse applications. Traditional techniques, such as partitional and hierarchical clustering, are analyzed alongside advanced approaches such as data stream, density-based, graph-based, and model-based clustering for handling complex structured datasets. The paper highlights key principles underpinning clustering, outlines widely used tools and frameworks, introduces the workflow of clustering in data science, discusses challenges in practical implementation, and examines various applications of clustering. By focusing on these foundations and applications, the discussion underscores clustering's transformative potential. The paper concludes with insights into future research directions, emphasizing clustering's role in driving innovation and enabling data-driven decision-making.

ClusteringK-Tensors: Clustering Positive Semi-Definite Matrices
This paper introduces $K$-Tensors, a novel self-consistent clustering algorithm designed to cluster positive semi-definite (PSD) matrices by their eigenstructures. Clustering PSD matrices is crucial across various fields…
ClusteringTechniques for clustering interaction data as a collection of graphs
A natural approach to analyze interaction data of form "what-connects-to-what-when" is to create a time-series (or rather a sequence) of graphs through temporal discretization (bandwidth selection) and spatial discretiza…
