Abstract

Developing Data Clustering algorithms have been pursued by researchers since the introduction of k-means algorithm (Macqueen 1967; Lloyd 1982). These algorithms were subsequently modified to handle categorical data. In order to handle the situations where objects can have memberships in multiple clusters, fuzzy clustering and rough clustering methods were introduced (Lingras et al 2003, 2004a). There are many extensions of these initial algorithms (Lingras et al 2004b; Lingras 2007; Mitra 2004; Peters 2006, 2007). The MMR algorithm (Parmar et al 2007), its extensions (Tripathy et al 2009, 2011a, 2011b) and the MADE algorithm (Herawan et al 2010) use rough set techniques for clustering. In this chapter, the authors focus on rough set based clustering algorithms and provide a comparative study of all the fuzzy set based and rough set based clustering algorithms in terms of their efficiency. They also present problems for future studies in the direction of the topics covered.
