Calculate Fukuyama and Sugeno index of clustering quality

calcFukuyamaSugeno(data, belongmatrix, centers, m)

Arguments

data

The original dataframe used for the clustering (n*p)

belongmatrix

A membership matrix (n*k)

centers

The centres of the clusters

m

The fuzziness parameter

Value

A float: the Fukuyama and Sugeno index

Details

The Fukuyama and Sugeno index (Fukuyama 1989) is the difference between the compacity of clusters and the separation of clusters. A smaller value indicates a better clustering. The formula is:

$$S(c)=\sum_{k=1}^{n} \sum_{i=1}^{c}\left(U_{i k}\right)^{m}\left(\left\|x_{k}-v_{i}\right\|^{2}-\left\|v_{i}-\bar{x}\right\|^{2}\right) 2$$

with n the number of observations, k the number of clusters and \(\bar{x}\) the mean of the dataset.
