New aspects of the elastic net algorithm for cluster analysis
The elastic net algorithm formulated by Durbin–Willshaw as a heuristic method and initially applied to solve the traveling salesman problem can be used as a tool for data clustering in n-dimensional space. With the help of statistical mechanics, it is formulated as a deterministic annealing method,...
