摘要
Clustering plays an important role in management and decision-making processes.This paper first discusses three types of cluster analysis methods-centroid-based,connectivity-based,and density-based.Then the challenges to traditional clustering in new business environments are highlighted,with algorithmic extensions and innovative efforts for coping with data that is dynamic,large-scale,representative,non-convex,and consensus in nature.In addition,three application cases are illustrated,where clustering is incorporated into the overall solution in the contexts of management support,business of sharing economy,and healthcare decision assistance.
