Call for Chapters: Partitional Clustering Algorithms (Springer, 2014)

Dear Colleagues,
We would like to invite you to contribute a chapter for our upcoming volume
entitled Partitional Clustering Algorithms to be published by Springer
sometime in late 2014.
Below is a short description of the volume:
Clustering, the unsupervised classification of patterns into groups, is one of the most important tasks in exploratory data analysis. Primary goals of
clustering include gaining insight into, classifying, and compressing data.
Clustering has a long and rich history that spans a variety of scientific
disciplines including anthropology, biology, medicine, psychology, statistics, mathematics, engineering, and computer science. As a result, numerous clustering algorithms have been proposed since the early 1950s. Among these algorithms, partitional (nonhierarchical) ones have found many applications, especially in engineering and computer science.
The goal of this volume is to summarize the state-of-the-art in partitional
clustering. Topics of interest include:
- Competitive learning clustering
- Density-based clustering
- Fuzzy/Possibilistic/Probabilistic clustering
- Graph-based clustering
- Grid-based clustering
- Metaheuristic clustering
- Model-based clustering
- Consensus clustering
- Constrained clustering
- Clustering large and/or high-dimensional data
- Cluster validity
- Cluster visualization
- Applications
Important Dates
Submission of abstracts October 15, 2013
Notification of initial editorial decisions November 1, 2013
Submission of full-length chapters January 15, 2014
Notification of final editorial decisions March 1, 2014
Submission of revised chapters April 1, 2014
All submissions should be done via EasyChair:
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=pca2014
Original artwork and a signed copyright release form will be required for all
accepted chapters. For author instructions, please visit:
