摘要:The 𝑘-means clustering algorithm is one of the
popular and simplest clustering algorithms. Due to its
simplicity, it is widely used in many applications.
Although 𝑘-means has low computational time and
space complexity, increasing the dataset size results
in increasing the computational time proportionally.
One of the most prominent solutions to deal with this
problem is the parallel processing. In this paper, we
aim to design and implement a parallel 𝑘-means
clustering algorithm on shared memory
multiprocessors using parallel java library. The
performance of the parallel algorithm is evaluated in
terms of speedup, efficiency and scalability.
Accuracy and quality of clustering results are also
measured. Furthermore, this paper presents analytical
results for the parallel program performance metrics.
