Validity index for crisp and fuzzy clusters

TLDR
A cluster validity index and its fuzzification is described, which can provide a measure of goodness of clustering on different partitions of a data set, and results demonstrating the superiority of the PBM-index in appropriately determining the number of clusters are provided.

Combining Fuzzy c-Means Classifiers Using Fuzzy Majority Vote

TL;DR: This paper proposes a combination method for fuzzy classifiers based on fuzzy majority voting rule, denoted by CFCM-FMV, which is tested on several real datasets and shows that the combination of fuzzyclassifiers outperforms all the participant fuzzy classifier in some cases in terms of the majority of cluster validity indexes.

A density-based clustering of the Self-Organizing Map using graph cut

TL;DR: An algorithm to automatically cluster the Self-Organizing Map (SOM) is presented, whose connection strengths are measured in terms of pattern density and a figure of merit that evaluates both the connectedness and separation selects the optimal partition.
