Relational Clustering

Abstract

We introduce relational variants of neural gas, a very efficient and
powerful neural clustering algorithm. It is assumed that a similarity or
dissimilarity matrix is given which stems from Euclidean distance or dot
product, respectively, however, the underlying embedding of points is unknown.
In this case, one can equivalently formulate batch optimization in
terms of the given similarities or dissimilarities, thus providing a way to
transfer batch optimization to relational data. Interestingly, convergence
is guaranteed even for general symmetric and nonsingular metrics.
