Abstract :
In this paper, a new fuzzy clustering algorithm that uses cellular learning automata based evolutionary computing (CLA-EC) is proposed. The CLA-EC is a model obtained by combining the concepts of cellular learning automata and evolutionary algorithms. The CLA-EC is used to search for cluster centers in such a way that minimizes the clustering criterion. The simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm produces clusters with acceptable quality with respect to clustering criterion and provides a performance that is superior to that of the C-means algorithm.
