Abstract

Within a class-labeled dataset, there are typically two or more possible class labels. Class-specific subsets of the dataset have the same class label for each record. Class-specific clusters are the groups of similar records within these subsets. There exists many machine learning techniques which require class-specific clusters. We propose RBClust, a rule based method for finding class-specific clusters. We demonstrate that when compared to traditional clustering methods, the proposed method achieves better cluster quality, and computation time is significantly lower.
