Abstract

The support vector clustering (SVC) algorithm is a recently emerged unsupervised learning method inspired by support vector machines. One key step involved in the SVC algorithm is the cluster assignment of each data point. A new cluster labeling method for SVC is developed based on some invariant topological properties of a trained kernel radius function. Benchmark results show that the proposed method outperforms previously reported labeling techniques.
