How to perform fuzzy c means clustering using custom initializations (initial fuzzy membership metric, datapoints, cluster centers.. etc)?

7 views (last 30 days)
% Define the data points as coordinates (X, Y)
Data = [
1, 3;
8, 2;
1, 2;
3, 1
];
% Defining total number of clusters
NumOfClusters = 2;
% Create the initial fuzzy partition matrix (U0)
U0 = [
1, 1, 0, 0;
0, 0, 1, 1
]; % Provided initial partition matrix
% Define initial cluster center values
initial_centers = [
2.0, 2.35;
2.15, 1.9
];
% Fuzzy c-means options
fuzzy_options = [2.0];
% Perform Fuzzy C-Means clustering with initializations
[~, cluster_centers, membership] = fcm(Data', NumOfClusters, fuzzy_options, U0, [], initial_centers);
% Displaying the updated partition matrix
disp('Updated Partition Matrix (Membership):');
disp(membership);
% Plotting the clustered data with different colors for each cluster
colors = distinguishable_colors(NumOfClusters); % Generate distinct colors for clusters
figure;
for i = 1:NumOfClusters
idx = find(membership(i, :) == max(membership));
scatter(Data(idx, 1), Data(idx, 2), 100, colors(i, :), 'filled');
hold on;
end
plot(cluster_centers(:, 1), cluster_centers(:, 2), 'kx', 'MarkerSize', 15, 'LineWidth', 2); % Plot cluster centers
hold off;
% Creating a legend dynamically based on the number of clusters
legend_strings = cell(1, NumOfClusters);
for i = 1:NumOfClusters
legend_strings{i} = ['Cluster ' num2str(i)];
end
legend_strings{NumOfClusters + 1} = 'Cluster Centers';
legend(legend_strings);

I want to initialize the datapoints, initial fuzzy partition matrix U0, initial_cluster centers but i am getting the following error:
Error using fcm Too many input arguments. Error in (line 28) [~, cluster_centers, membership] = fcm(Data', NumOfClusters, fuzzy_options, U0, [], initial_centers);
When i remove the initial fuzzy partition matrix U0 and initial cluster centers the code works.
