New R package naspaclust enhances spatial fuzzy clustering with nature-inspired optimization

A new R package called naspaclust has been developed to enhance spatial fuzzy clustering by integrating the Fuzzy Geographically Weighted Clustering (FGWC) method with various nature-inspired optimization algorithms. The package includes seven optimization algorithms, such as the Artificial Bee Colony and Particle Swarm Optimisation, with modifications to their randomization terms and updating rules. Additionally, naspaclust offers expanded distance metric options through the rdist package, demonstrating its implementation and comparative performance across different cases to improve spatial fuzzy clustering. AI

IMPACT This package could improve the performance and accuracy of spatial clustering tasks in various research applications.

    naspaclust: A hybridisation of spatial fuzzy clustering with nature-inspired optimisation

    We present an overview of R package called \texttt{naspaclust}, a tool for spatial fuzzy clustering improvement by hybridising the Fuzzy Geographically Weighted Clustering (FGWC) with nature-inspired optimisation algorithms. There are seven optimisation algorithms in general, nam…
