Abstract
In this paper we propose a similarity-based clustering algorithm for handling LR-type fuzzy numbers. The proposed method does not need to specify a cluster number and initial values in which it is robust to initial values, cluster number, cluster shapes, noise and outliers for clustering LR-type fuzzy data. Numerical examples and real data demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed clustering algorithm.
