| 20100086224 | DYNAMIC CLUSTERING FOR ADAPTIVE PREDICTION FILTERS - An initial value is assigned to a center point for each cluster in a plurality of clusters. Each point in a point space is assigned to a closest cluster based on the distance between the each point and the center of nearest cluster. A first-assignment value is determined for each center point using the clusters the points are assigned to. A first-assignment dynamic validity index of a current cluster configuration is evaluated. Each point in the point space is reassigned to the closest cluster based on the first-assignment value of each center. A second-assignment value is determined for the center of each cluster according to the reassigning. A second-assignment dynamic validity index is evaluated using the second-assignment values. The current cluster configuration is selected if the difference between the dynamic validity indices is less than a threshold. | 04-08-2010 |
