The paper challenges the validity of cluster validity measures in unsupervised learning.

problem The validity of cluster validity measures in selecting optimal clusterings.
method The authors investigate the use of cluster validity measures as objective functions in unsupervised learning and introduce a new variant of the Dunn index.
result Many cluster validity measures promote clusterings that do not match expert knowledge well.

Globalization is one of the central concepts of our age. The common perception of the process is that, due to declining communication and transport costs, distance becomes less and less important. However, the distance coefficient in the gravity model of trade, which grows in time, indicates that the role of distance i…

Socio-economic inequality is measured using various indices. The Gini (gg) index, giving the overall inequality is the most commonly used, while the recently introduced Kolkata (kk) index gives a measure of 1k1-k fraction of population who possess top kk fraction of wealth in the society. This article reviews the ch…
