Various real-life datasets can be viewed as a set of records consisting of attributes explaining the records and set of measures evaluating the records. In this paper, we address t...
Document clustering plays an important role in data mining systems. Recently, a flocking-based document clustering algorithm has been proposed to solve the problem through simulat...
