The number of accidents and health diseases which are increasing at an alarming rate are resulting in a huge increase in the demand for blood. There is a necessity for the organized analysis of the blood donor database or blood banks repositories. Clustering analysis is one of the data mining applications and K-means clustering algorithm is the fundamental algorithm for modern clustering techniques. K-means clustering algorithm is traditional approach and iterative algorithm. At every iteration, it attempts to find the distance from the centroid of each cluster to each and every data point. This paper gives the improvement to the original k-means algorithm by improving the initial centroids with distribution of data. Results and discussions show that improved K-means algorithm produces accurate clusters in less computation time to find the donors information.

In this paper, we show that the popular K-means clustering problem can equivalently be reformulated as a conic program of polynomial size. The arising convex optimization problem is NP-hard, but amenable to a tractable semidefinite programming (SDP)
relaxation that is tighter than the current SDP relaxation schemes in the literature. In contrast to the existing schemes, our proposed SDP formulation gives rise to solutions that can be leveraged to identify the clusters. We devise a new approximation algorithm for K-means clustering that utilizes the improved formulation and empirically illustrate its superiority over the state-of-the-art solution schemes.
We address the problem of simultaneously learning a k-means clustering and deep feature representation from unlabelled data, which is of interest due to the potential of deep k-means to outperform traditional two-step feature extraction and shallow-c
lustering strategies. We achieve this by developing a gradient-estimator for the non-differentiable k-means objective via the Gumbel-Softmax reparameterisation trick. In contrast to previous attempts at deep clustering, our concrete k-means model can be optimised with respect to the canonical k-means objective and is easily trained end-to-end without resorting to alternating optimisation. We demonstrate the efficacy of our method on standard clustering benchmarks.
textit{Clustering problems} often arise in the fields like data mining, machine learning etc. to group a collection of objects into similar groups with respect to a similarity (or dissimilarity) measure. Among the clustering problems, specifically te
xtit{$k$-means} clustering has got much attention from the researchers. Despite the fact that $k$-means is a very well studied problem its status in the plane is still an open problem. In particular, it is unknown whether it admits a PTAS in the plane. The best known approximation bound in polynomial time is $9+eps$. In this paper, we consider the following variant of $k$-means. Given a set $C$ of points in $mathcal{R}^d$ and a real $f > 0$, find a finite set $F$ of points in $mathcal{R}^d$ that minimizes the quantity $f*|F|+sum_{pin C} min_{q in F} {||p-q||}^2$. For any fixed dimension $d$, we design a local search PTAS for this problem. We also give a bi-criterion local search algorithm for $k$-means which uses $(1+eps)k$ centers and yields a solution whose cost is at most $(1+eps)$ times the cost of an optimal $k$-means solution. The algorithm runs in polynomial time for any fixed dimension. The contribution of this paper is two fold. On the one hand, we are being able to handle the square of distances in an elegant manner, which yields near optimal approximation bound. This leads us towards a better understanding of the $k$-means problem. On the other hand, our analysis of local search might also be useful for other geometric problems. This is important considering that very little is known about the local search method for geometric approximation.
This paper considers $k$-means clustering in the presence of noise. It is known that $k$-means clustering is highly sensitive to noise, and thus noise should be removed to obtain a quality solution. A popular formulation of this problem is called $k$
-means clustering with outliers. The goal of $k$-means clustering with outliers is to discard up to a specified number $z$ of points as noise/outliers and then find a $k$-means solution on the remaining data. The problem has received significant attention, yet current algorithms with theoretical guarantees suffer from either high running time or inherent loss in the solution quality. The main contribution of this paper is two-fold. Firstly, we develop a simple greedy algorithm that has provably strong worst case guarantees. The greedy algorithm adds a simple preprocessing step to remove noise, which can be combined with any $k$-means clustering algorithm. This algorithm gives the first pseudo-approximation-preserving reduction from $k$-means with outliers to $k$-means without outliers. Secondly, we show how to construct a coreset of size $O(k log n)$. When combined with our greedy algorithm, we obtain a scalable, near linear time algorithm. The theoretical contributions are verified experimentally by demonstrating that the algorithm quickly removes noise and obtains a high-quality clustering.
We propose a novel method to accelerate Lloyds algorithm for K-Means clustering. Unlike previous acceleration approaches that reduce computational cost per iterations or improve initialization, our approach is focused on reducing the number of iterat
ions required for convergence. This is achieved by treating the assignment step and the update step of Lloyds algorithm as a fixed-point iteration, and applying Anderson acceleration, a well-established technique for accelerating fixed-point solvers. Classical Anderson acceleration utilizes m previous iterates to find an accelerated iterate, and its performance on K-Means clustering can be sensitive to choice of m and the distribution of samples. We propose a new strategy to dynamically adjust the value of m, which achieves robust and consistent speedups across different problem instances. Our method complements existing acceleration techniques, and can be combined with them to achieve state-of-the-art performance. We perform extensive experiments to evaluate the performance of the proposed method, where it outperforms other algorithms in 106 out of 120 test cases, and the mean decrease ratio of computational time is more than 33%.
