Abstract
The clustering algorithm we propose is based on probabilistic dissimilarity, which is formed by introducing the concept of probability into conventional dissimilarity. After defining probabilistic dissimilarity, we present examples of probabilistic dissimilarity functions. After considering an objective function with probabilistic dissimilarity. Furthermore, we construct a clustering algorithm probabilistic dissimilarity based using optimal solutions maximizing the objective function. Numerical examples verify the effectiveness of our algorithm.
