Abstract

An original on-line mixture model-based clustering algorithm is presented in this paper. The proposed algorithm is a stochastic gradient ascent derived from the Classification EM (CEM) algorithm. It generalizes the on-line k-means algorithm. Using synthetic data sets, the proposed algorithm is compared to CEM and another on-line clustering algorithm. The results show that the proposed method provides a fast and accurate estimation when mixture components are relatively well separated.
