## Abstract In this paper, a new method for fuzzy clustering is proposed that combines generative topographic mapping (GTM) and Fuzzy cβmeans (FCM) clustering. GTM is used to generate latent variables and their posterior probabilities. These two provide the distribution of the input data in the lat

Emerging technologies on the World Wide Web promise to make program, algorithm and concept simulations universally accessible, and Java appears to be the best technology available. Simulations involving animation and visualization have a tremendous benefit when applied to various algorithms. We pres
Clustering is a widely used technique in data mining applications for discovering patterns in underlying data. Most traditional clustering algorithms are limited to handling datasets that contain either numeric or categorical attributes. However, datasets with mixed types of attributes are common in
Clustered data are the rule in many clinical specialties such as ophthalmology. Methods have been developed for the treatment of clustered continuous or binary outcome data. Less attention has been given to ordinal outcomes which occur frequently in ophthalmology. For example, grading systems of cat
