Abstract

In this paper, a heuristic algorithm of possibilistic clustering based on fuzzy graph decomposition is proposed. For the purpose, concepts of fuzzy graph and fuzzy tolerance relation are considered and basic definitions of the heuristic approach to possibilistic clustering are described. An application of the proposed algorithm to the Tamura’s portrait data set is provided and some concluding remarks are stated.
