Clustering is a major unsupervised learning algorithm and is widely applied in data mining and statistical data analyses. Typical examples include k-means, fuzzy c-means, and Gaussian mixture models, which are categorized into hard, soft, and model-based clusterings, respectively. We propose a new clustering, called Pareto clustering, based on the Kolmogorov–Nagumo average, which is defined by a survival function of the Pareto distribution. The proposed algorithm incorporates all the aforementioned clusterings plus maximum-entropy clustering. We introduce a probabilistic framework for the proposed method, in which the underlying distribution to give consistency is discussed. We build the minorize-maximization algorithm to estimate the parameters in Pareto clustering. We compare the performance with existing methods in simulation studies and in benchmark dataset analyses to demonstrate its highly practical utilities.

AbstractThis paper deals with the theoretical analysis of the spatial concentration and localization of firms and employees over a set of regions. In particular, it provides a simple site-selection theoretical model to describe the probabilistic framework of the location patterns. The adopted quantitative tool is the stochastic theory of urns. The model moves from the empirical evidence of the deviation of the spatial location of companies from the uniform distribution and of employees from the distribution of firms. Factors leading to such deviations are taken into consideration. Specifically, we formalize a decision problem grounded on the economic attributes of the regions and also on the distribution of the existing firms and employees in the territory. To our purpose, the site-selection model is presented as a stepwise process.

Over the last decade, hundreds of thousands of volunteers have contributed to science by collecting or analyzing data. This public participation in science, also known as citizen science, has contributed to significant discoveries and led to publications in major scientific journals. However, little attention has been paid to data quality issues. In this work we argue that being able to determine the accuracy of data obtained by crowdsourcing is a fundamental question and we point out that, for many real-life scenarios, mathematical tools and processes for the evaluation of data quality are missing. We propose a probabilistic methodology for the evaluation of the accuracy of labeling data obtained by crowdsourcing in citizen science. The methodology builds on an abstract probabilistic graphical model formalism, which is shown to generalize some already existing label aggregation models. We show how to make practical use of the methodology through a comparison of data obtained from different citizen science communities analyzing the earthquake that took place in Albania in 2019.
