.... either eigen vector analysis, K means or agglomerative hierarchical methods, have proved to be very popular in elds such as information retrieval, data mining, biology, image segmentation and epidemiology (Baeza Yates and Ribeiro Neto 1999, Cadez, Ga ney and Smyth 2000, Hofmann and Puzicha 1998, Hunt and Jorgensen 1999, Shi and Malik 1997) There are a few reasons for this popularity. Firstly, by grouping similar items together, one is intrinsically performing data compression. This task is of paramount importance when managing massive databases. For instance, to process a query eciently, it is easier to search ....
....on images, ltering objectionable images, copy detection for intellectual property protection, fashion catalogues, artist s databases, etc. Several authors have, however, stated that traditional clustering techniques can be very sensitive to variations in the data (Andr es Christen et al. 2000, Hunt and Jorgensen 1999). In addition, it is not straightforward to design distance measures or to choose similarity levels in hierarchical schemes. Despite these shortcomings, traditional clustering methods have enjoyed some reasonable success. Mixture models, which are rooted on a more satisfactory theoretical ....
