jMinHep

a framework for data clustering

About

jMinHEP is a framework for clustering analysis, i.e. for non-supervised learning in which the classification process does not depend on a priory information. The program is a pure JAVA-based application and includes the following algorithms:
  • K-means clustering analysis (single and multi pass)
  • C-means (fuzzy) algorithm
  • Agglomerative hierarchical clustering
The algorithms run for a fixed cluster mode and for a best estimate, i.e. when the number of clusters is not a priory given but is found after estimation of the cluster compactness. The data points can be defined in multidimensional space. At present, the distance measure is euclidean.

The program can run in the GUI mode where all clustering parameters can be set via the user interface and the output is displayed. The data can be loaded in form of Attribute-Relation File Format (ARFF). The cluster centers and the seeds positions can also be shown.
