In the proposed algorithm, a novel objective function is firstly designed by considering the fuzzy weighting within-cluster compactness and the between-cluster separation, and loosening the constraints of dimension weight matrix. Then gradual membership and improved Cuckoo search, a global search strategy, are introduced to optimize the objective function and search subspace clusters, giving novel learning rules for clustering. At last, the performance of the proposed algorithm on the clustering analysis of various low and high dimensional datasets is experimentally compared with that of several competitive subspace clustering algorithms. Experimental studies demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can obtain better performance than most of the existing soft subspace clustering algorithms.展开更多
