Abstract :
Genetic algorithm is optimal mathematical search technique based on the principles of natural selection and genetic recombination. Therefore, to make clustering analysis process automation, a hybrid method combining genetic algorithm and clustering algorithm has been applied. Then, the best clustering result can be obtained. According to the simulation results, the proposed algorithm outperforms several existing approaches such as FCM, SOM.
