Fuzzy C-Means Clustering Using Asymmetric Loss Function

In this work, a fuzzy clustering algorithm is proposed based on the asymmetric loss function instead of the usual symmetric dissimilarities. Linear Exponential (LINEX) loss function is a commonly used asymmetric loss function, which is considered in this paper. We prove that the negative likelihood...
