- Project Description
- The project focused on mathematical and computer technology involved in building various kinds of data mining, search, and retrieval systems.
The search and retrieval methods ranged from classical latent semantic indexing systems through Google's pagerank technology. The data mining components
revolved around a variety of data clustering schemes.
- Conclusions & Results
- New clustering techniques involving gapped PDDP and extended Fiedler algorithms were
developed. In addition, a new concept of cluster aggregation was formulated that appears to outperform many standard clustering algorithms.
Details are given in the final report.
