| Resumen: |
Given a set of entities, Cluster Analysis aims at finding subsets, called clusters, which are homogeneous and/or well separated. As many types of clustering and criteria for homogeneity or separation are of interest, this is a vast field. A survey is given from a mathematical programming viewpoint. Steps of a clustering study, types of clustering and criteria are discussed. Then algorithms for hierarchical, partitioning, sequential, and additive clustering are studied. Emphasis is on solution methods, i. e. , dynamic programming, graph theoretical algorithms, branch-and-bound, cutting planes, column generation and heuristics. . |
