Delta-MOCK algorithm for Evolutionary Multiobjective Clustering

Delta-MOCK

Delta-MOCK is a new version of the multiobjective clustering with automatic k-determination (MOCK) algorithm. MOCK is an evolutionary approach to multiobjective data clustering, originally proposed by Julia Handl and Joshua Knowles [1]. Our new algorithm Delta-MOCK presents extensive changes and improves upon the effectiveness and computational efficiency of MOCK. This translates into a better scalability which is essential given the unprecedented volumes of data that require to be processed in current clustering applications.

Delta-MOCK is described in detail in our paper:

The source code of the implementation of Delta-MOCK studied in our paper, as well as our collection of test data sets, is made available through this repository.
