Clustering is an underspecified task: there are no universal criteria for what makes a good clustering. This is especially true for relational data, where similarity can be based on the features of individuals, the relationships between them, or a mix of both. Existing methods for relational clustering have strong and …
Topological parallax assesses AI models' geometric similarity to datasets for safety.
The performance of most the clustering methods hinges on the used pairwise affinity, which is usually denoted by a similarity matrix. However, the pairwise similarity is notoriously known for its vulnerability of noise contamination or the imbalance in samples or features, and thus hinders accurate clustering. To tackl…

Defining similarity measures is a requirement for some machine learning methods. One such method is case-based reasoning (CBR) where the similarity measure is used to retrieve the stored case or set of cases most similar to the query case. Describing a similarity measure analytically is challenging, even for domain exp…
Similarity between objects is multi-faceted and it can be easier for human annotators to measure it when the focus is on a specific aspect.
