Abstract
In a computer-implemented method for improving a k-means clustering algorithm, a processor modifies a first data point of a data set to include a first distribution boundary. A processor calculates a first effective distance between the first distribution boundary and a first centroid of a cluster. A processor assigns the first data point to the first cluster. A processor recomputes the first centroid based on the first data point and the first distribution boundary.
