Abstract
The well-known K-means algorithm has been successfully applied to many practical clustering problems, but it has some drawbacks such as local optimal convergence and sensitivity to initial points. Particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) is one of the swarm intelligent algorithms, it is applied in solving global optimization problems. An integration of enhanced PSO and K-means algorithm is becoming one of the popular strategies for solving clustering problems. In this study, an approach based on PSO and K-means is presented (denoted EPSO), in which PSO is enhanced by neighborhood search strategies. By hybrid with enhanced PSO, it does not only help the algorithm escape from local optima but also overcomes the shortcoming of the slow convergence speed of the PSO algorithm. Experimental results on eight benchmark data sets show that the proposed approach outperforms some other data clustering algorithms, and has an acceptable efficiency and robustness.

Prediction interval methodology based on fuzzy numbers and its extension to fuzzy systems and neural networks

TL;DR: Fuzzy and neural network prediction interval models are developed based on fuzzy numbers by minimizing a novel criterion that includes the coverage probability and normalized average width and show that the proposed models are suitable alternatives to electrical consumption forecasting because they obtain the minimum interval widths that characterize the uncertainty of this type of stochastic process.
