摘要：
A new cluster validity index is proposed for the validation of partitions of object data produced by the fuzzy c-means algorithm. The proposed validity index uses a variation measure and a separation measure between two fuzzy clusters. A good fuzzy partition is expected to have a low degree of variation and a large separation distance. Testing of the proposed index and nine previously formulated indices on well-known data sets shows the superior effectiveness and reliability of the proposed index in comparison to other indices and the robustness of the proposed index in noisy environments.
