Joint Deep Clustering: Classification and Review

Clustering is a fundamental problem in machine learning. To address this, a large number of algorithms have been developed. Some of these algorithms, such as K-means, handle the original data directly, while others, such as spectral clustering, apply linear transformation to the data. Still others, such as kernel-based algorithms, use nonlinear transformation. Since the performance of the clustering depends strongly on the quality of the data representation, representation learning approaches have been extensively researched. With the recent advances in deep learning, deep neural networks are being increasingly utilized to learn clustering-friendly representation. We provide here a review of existing algorithms that are being used to jointly optimize deep neural networks and clustering methods.
