A New Fuzzy Noise-Rejection Data Partitioning Algorithm with Revised Mahalanobis Distance
Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) and hard clustering are the most common tools for data partitioning. However, the presence of noisy observations in the data may cause generation of completely ...

Numerical analysis of Mahalanobis metric in vector space
The Mahalanobis metric was proposed by extending the Mahalanobis distance to provide a probabilistic distance for a non-normal distribution. The Mahalanobis metric equation is a n...
