The paper gives a new interpretation and a possible optimization of the well-known k -means algorithm for searching for a locally optimal partition of the set 𝒜 = { a i n : i = 1 , , m } which consists of k disjoint nonempty subsets π 1 , , π k , 1 k m . For this purpose, a new divided k -means algorithm was constructed as a limit case of the known smoothed k -means algorithm. It is shown that the algorithm constructed in this way coincides with the k -means algorithm if during the iterative procedure no data points appear in the...
