Abstract

Most structured data are stored in relational databases containing multiple semantically linked relations. Mining interrelated data in relational databases is important in many real-world applications. This paper proposed a genetic K-means membranes clustering algorithm (GKM), which combine membrane computing and genetic K-means algorithm to solve the problem of clustering on multi-relational data set. In this paper, we design a tissue-like P system with two-level membranes structure, each membranes searches the best threshold by the evolution rules and communication rules. The algorithm makes full use of the parallelism of P system, the good convergence of genetic algorithm and the local search ability of K-means algorithm, and achieves good partitioning for a data set. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has better convergence accuracy and computational efficiency.
