摘要

Information granules form an abstract and efficient characterization of large volumes of numeric data. Fuzzy clustering is a commonly encountered information granulation approach. A reconstruction (degranulation) is about decoding information granules into numeric data. In this study, to enhance quality of reconstruction, we augment the generic data reconstruction approach by introducing a transformation mapping of the originally produced partition matrix and setting up an adjustment mechanism modifying a localization of the prototypes. We engage several population-based search algorithms to optimize interaction matrices and prototypes. A series of experimental results dealing with both synthetic and publicly available data sets are reported to show the enhancement of the data reconstruction performance provided by the proposed method.
