Improving Support Vector Clustering with Ensembles(3)

Abstract: Support Vector Clustering (SVC) is a recently proposed clustering methodology with promising performance for high-dimensional and noisy data sets, and for clusters with arbitrary shape. However, setting the parameters of the SVC algorithm is a ch
