#60. Old paper by Witold Pedrycz

I presume a thorough search would discover many interesting papers by Pedrycz in the net. This one makes a nice reading:

Witold Pedrycz (2007). Collaborative and knowledge-based fuzzy clustering. International Journal of Innovative
Computing, Information and Control
3, 1-12.

The content is much more `philosophical' than `technical', explaining some ideas from his `human-centric' view of clustering techniques. I recall distinctly Pedrycz's talk at IFSA'05 (Dubois's as well, but that's material for another post). A catchy example of Pedrycz's was a system which would learn to classify your digital picture collection. I thought: Now that's definitely a clustering problem and how far it is from the typical view of clustering in statistical books and journals!


More technical material can be found in Pedrycz's book (link to Google Books).
