Recovery Rate of Clustering Algorithms

This article provides a simple and general way for defining the recovery rate of clustering algorithms using a given family of old clusters for evaluating the performance of the algorithm when calculating a family of new clusters. Under the assumption of dealing with simulated data (i.e., known old clusters), the recovery rate is calculated using one proposed exact (but slow) algorithm, or one proposed approximate algorithm (with feasible run time).
