Abstract

The shortcoming of traditional spectral clustering algorithm is its dependence on initial value. This paper proposes a spectral clustering algorithm based on the particle swarm optimization, considering the characteristic of the good global and local optimization capability and the randomization of initial population. According to the example analysis, the spectral clustering algorithm based on the particle swarm optimization has overcome the shortcoming of excessive dependence on initial value of the traditional spectral clustering algorithm. The accuracy of the cluster is improved.
