Abstract

In this paper, a speed-up version of the Dynamic Hierarchical Compact (DHC ) algorithm is presented. Our approach profits from the cluster hierarchy already built to reduce the number of calculated similarities. The experimental results on several benchmark text collections show that the proposed method is significantly faster than DHC while achieving approximately the same clustering quality.
