Abstract

This chapter presents a contrast pattern based method called CPCQ for clustering-quality evaluation. Special strengths of the method include (1) it does not use distance metrics, and (2) the underlying algorithm produces, for each cluster, a number of contrast patterns to represent the uniqueness of the cluster.
