description | The main problem of classical clustering technique is that it is easily trapped in the local optima. An attempt has been made to solve this problem by proposing the grey wolf algorithm (GWA)-based clustering technique, called GWA clustering (GWAC), through this paper. The search capability of GWA is used to search the optimal cluster centers in the given feature space. The agent representation is used to encode the centers of clusters. The proposed GWAC technique is tested on both artificial and real-life data sets and compared to six well-known metaheuristic-based clustering techniques. The computational results are encouraging and demonstrate that GWAC provides better values in terms of precision, recall, G-measure, and intracluster distances. GWAC is further applied for gene expression data set and its performance is compared to other techniques. Experimental results reveal the efficiency of the GWAC over other techniques. |
