Abstract
An additive spectral method for fuzzy clustering is presented. The method operates on a clustering model which is an extension of the spectral decomposition of a square matrix. The computation proceeds by extracting clusters one by one, which allows us to draw several stopping rules to the procedure. We experimentally test the performance of our method and show its competitiveness.
