Clustering global optimization methods can be viewed as a modified form of the standard multistart procedure, which performs a local search from several points distributed over the entire search domain. A drawback of Multistart is that when many starting
Clustering Methods
Most of the existing approaches to document clustering are based on either probabilistic methods, or distance and similarity measures (see [FBY92]). Distance-based methods such as k-means analysis, hierarchical clustering [JD88] and nearest-neighbor clust
Clustering Methods:
Sequences are clustered into subalignments by using a similarity measure [33,34,26]. The clustered subalignments are subsequently aligned to one another by employing various consensus methods that reduce each subalignment to a single consensus sequence. E
