Fast Algorithms for Constant Approximation k-Means Clustering
In this paper we study the k-means clustering problem. It is well-known that the general version of this problem is NP-hard. Numerous approximation algorithms have been proposed fo...

Stability Yields a PTAS for k-Median and k-Means Clustering
We consider k-median clustering in finite metric spaces and k-means clustering in Euclidean spaces, in the setting where k is part of the input (not a constant). For the k-means pr...

A method for initialising the K-means clustering algorithm using kd-trees
We present a method for initialising the K-means clustering algorithm. Our method hinges on the use of a kd-tree to perform a density estimation of the data at various locations. ...
