Abstract

One of the most employed yet simple algorithm for cluster analysis is the k-means algorithm. k-means has successfully witnessed its use in artificial intelligence, market segmentation, fraud detection, data mining, psychology, etc., only to name a few. The k-means algorithm, however, does not always yield the best quality results. Its performance heavily depends upon the number of clusters supplied and the proper initialization of the cluster centroids or seeds.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of k-means on image data by employing parametric entropies in an entropy-based centroid initialization method and propose the best-fitting entropy measures for general image datasets. We use several entropies like Taneja entropy, Kapur entropy, Aczel Daroczy entropy, and Sharma Mittal entropy. We observe that different entropies provide better results for different datasets than the conventional methods. We have applied our proposed algorithm on these datasets: Satellites, Toys, Fruits, Cars, Brain MRI, and COVID X-Ray.
