Summary:As an unsupervised learning method, clustering methods plays an important role in quality data mining and various other applications. This work investigates them based on swarm intelligence, introduces a new intelligence algorithm called mussels wandering optimization (MWO) to the data clustering field, and proposes a new clustering algorithm by combining K-means clustering method and MWO. Tests on six standard data sets are performed. The results demonstrate the validity and superiority of the proposed method over some representative clustering ones.
